It's done! The composition is complete and we both welcomed the late addition to the drawing – Mary Magdalene! Now it's time for the photo shoot. I typically prefer painting my subjects with photo references to ensure the light and shadows are as realistic as possible... less guess work for me. Fr. J. has a few people in mind for the live models and we've got some great costumes to work with too. We're scheduled to shoot for January 23!
