TWELFTH STATION
JESUS DIES ON THE CROSS
RELIGIOUS PAINTINGS IN A WHEELBARROW AND A STEEL LADDER
The Rev. Thomas Faulkner, Artist

 

 

National Liquidators parking lot, Queens, N.Y., June 12th, 2003. 50 acrylic paintings in the two sizes of medium and large priced at $19.00 and $29.00 respectively. All are copies of great masterpieces by the same artist, though he signs each using different names. I commissioned 10 fragments of Michelangelo’s “act of creation” from the Sistine Chapel. Was the Son of Man proven by death to be just a man? Was his life of more meaning than simply paint on canvas - mass-produced art we can stick in a cart and roll away. What must those disciples have thought when their Lord and Savior died on the cross?
