It was quite interesting how this project came to me. I never really thought I would be doing any religious series theme considering the past paintings I’d done were mostly nudes or figurative paintings. Sure, a few times I’d commissioned artworks to do portraits of Jesus Christ, churches & even the “Last Supper” but not a whole body of work that would concentrate on the Pentecost theme which will be celebrated on May 29-31.
An Old Master's Pentecost Painting
It’s been a while since I did some major paintings & my aunt who happens to be an active parishioner in St. Lorenzo Ruiz Church asked me to display a series of religious painting during the festivities & I thought, “why not?” Anyways, I already did some graphics work for the parish during the Lenten Season which fortunately, they liked.
