Apostolic Visitation


Posted by Picasa

I painted this in the flat, naive style of an ex-voto taking my 'inspiration' from the seminary scandals in Austria as well as related sex scandals in U.S. seminaries - which required at least two apostolic visitations over the years.  The painting is meant as a rather 'screwball comedy' interpretation of a subject otherwise offensive and scandalous.
