12 stations ceiling

This is a ceiling that I have been working on for the last few months. The center piece is an antique from Portugal. The images of the 12 stations of the cross were painted in the 1700's. High res images were captured of the original paintings and then printed on archival canvas. Then I distressed and aged them.
