Sarum College Exhibition “The Word”

Portland relief carving 22” x 25” x 2” painted acrylic and gilded.

This carving is in a style that was prevalent when the KJB was first printed but shows the changing landscape over the last 4 centuries. It is painted and gilded using as bright colours as possible, as was most stone carving of the day.

A view of a direct relationship with Christ informed by The King James Bible over the last 400 years, colouring and illuminating the World.

These days it is unfashionable to paint stone. Tastes and attitudes change, so the continuity provided by the written word is essential. It can help carry the message residing in our hearts that it is possible to move beyond words towards a direct relationship with the love of God.
