This painting represents to me the message that it IS finished, and it IS done and because it is we can all rest in the assurance that we are forgiven. Therefore we can have hope. Hence, this scene is both rugged and peaceful. Strong yet relaxing.
Not as commercial as my main body of work, I agree, but this was not about a sale but rather about one of those things you just have to do just because. Just because. :-)
