When I was at school I remember when we were all given photos of the turin shroud - a photo I have been fascinated by. I wanted to incorporate this image into a shrine so I have painted a mini canvas with a mixture of paints, red copper powder, beads, inked metal embossed leaves and a grungeboard painted crown. The word at the bottom is faith..I think it is so important to have faith in a higher power as well as faith in our own power to achieve success in life. I also like the George Michael song Faith..bet you are all humming that now!! be sure to check out all the other entries at mixed media monthly challenge

Lol. I posted my butterfly reminder yesterday. I chose faith as my word for much the same reasons!
