My Sweet Vengeance~ Original Painting (with added ephemera

~My Sweet Vengeance~

by Rainey J

27.5" x 19.5" canvas

Original Painting with added ephemera (1846 to 1950s)

''IN MY WORLD HONEY BOY

WHEN THE LEAVES COME TUMBLING DOWN

OH MY SWEET VENGEANCE ON THE GRAVEL PATH
INSTANTANEOUSLY''

This painting was inspired by a majestic 150 year old hand sculpted stone statue in Glasnevin Cemetery of Jesus Christ. It's about fifteen foot tall and is absolutely awe inspiring. The craftsmanship is incredibly unreal...no laser cut computerised machinery back then! Anyway , using this belief system and world unfoldings of vile proportions I have tried to paint an all-powerful stone expression and then using antique & vintage papers I've depicted a scene (which has been repeated too many times in a clandestine world ) below Him that which suggests innocence, church, trust, paradise,wolfe,death,vengeance, lurking danger & sachrine persuasion intent on feeding its insatiable evil want.

This is one of the newer paintings that I'll be exhibiting at The peoples Art Exhibition on St Stephens Green this coming weekend.

So sorry to all my followers for having not left comments on your wonderful blogs as of late. THANKYOU for visiting mine and for taking the time to write your thoughts- love yas! I've been so busy with painting, steampunk jewellery, and running my market event. Also my daughter Jade is about to start her Masters Degree in NCAD and has needed her Mammy to help out with preparations.
