Description
Rock Chapel is all that remains of a Catholic monastery that once operated in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. This is an acrylic painting, done in a somewhat impressionistic style. In the larger sizes, it looks almost abstract when the viewer stands close. Step back, and it all comes together.
....................................................................
The main colors of this work are various shades of green, brown, gray, and white. A small rock chapel stands among trees and foliage. A statue is on the left. On the bottom of the painting, three crosses mark the graves of who I have been told were monks. Out of range of the artwork, there are three more graves.
................................................................
I try to imagine how it must have looked here when the monastery was flourishing. The grounds were probably much clearer of trees then. There were more and bigger buildings, of course. And, most importantly, I see the people, carrying on with their duties.
