Good afternoon. I just completed this pastel. It was inspired by a photograph I saw of an old mission. It looked sad but inspirational at the same time. When I think of the people who built it, their faith and their labor of love, I am filled with respect and admiration for them. Not all of us have the opportunity to build a building from the ground up fueled by faith and hope. We do build things, and it is often with faith and hope: relationships, family, friendships. Out heart and soul go into these personal endeavors,. don't they? Although this mission looks like it is in a state of decay, it is still a work of art. Let's all work toward building things that last forever. Thanks.
