Abstract

From my Fall 1998 submission of an ORCA proposal, I have since been extremely involved in the completion of my proposed project. As an Illustration major seeking a religious emphasis, I feel that the worth of a picture is to develop and motivate the mind to a better understanding of the truths of this eternal world. I proposed to paint a series of five large narrative paintings depicting the last three hours of Christ’s life in the Garden of Gethsemane. Because of the sacred nature of this project I felt like it was very important to increase my own knowledge and senses of the subject to a greater level of understanding.
