An Ascension Day Sketch

Whether or not you're religious, I'm sure you'll agree that some of our most vivid stories originate from what we call scriptures. One story, which holds particular power with Christians, is that of Jesus' ascension.


I began this picture in church one Sunday, drawing the image of a white life-size plaster figure hanging on the wall high above our heads. (At least, I assume it's plaster: it's too high up to tell). Somehow, over a period of weeks, and various sermons, it transformed into this. I think the mention in the bulletin of a special Ascension Day service must have influenced the final result.

Today, wherever you are, and whatever you believe, Happy Ascension Day. May your thoughts and spirits be elevated today!
