Well, this is the fourth time I've tried to post an entry about my finished "Magnus Crucifix" project. I'd already somehow messed my Livejournal entry up twice when yesterday afternoon while I was typing away, my son was carjacked at gunpoint on my front porch. Yes indeedy. Everyone is fine now and he has his car back but not his wallet. However, I managed to lose my LiveJournal entry. So today I tried again and the screen locked up while I was trying to tell about the carjacking and I lost it again.
Thank you Theresa, for coming over last night and letting me blubber on your shoulder about the carjacking. Here is a scan of the finished painting. My son posed for the figure of both Jesus and St. John. Now I'm wondering if maybe that was bad karma or something.
