Piece Three in my HSC body of work. The series in total is called “Ascendancy” which means domination or influincing figure, but also has connotations to the ascention of Mary in Christianity. Basically what i tried to do was to show how humanity’s expression of faith has changed, evolved, or even stayed the same. “The crucifixion” refers to the death of the ‘sviour’ (no kidding)

I would like to thank the amazing photographer who allowed me to use his photographs for photo references – on DeviantART, he was AshenMind, though now he has moved on to bigger and brighter pastures, and has his own site – (http://www.a-less.com/) which i highly suggest you take a look at! The piece that i used for this drawing was called ‘Asphyxiate", which unfortunately i haven’t been able to find since he moved sites. still, thank you so much, your work is simply amazing ^^
