Let The Fields be Jubilant!!

25/7/2019

A Cross For the School Chapel!

This month I had the great pleasure of designing an artwork for ​St. Winefride's Catholic Primary School in Neston, Cheshire. A new cross was needed for the School Chapel and I was asked to make a one using words from a specific Bible passage.

Psalm 96 was chosen with particular emphasis on the words - 

'Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;
let the sea resound, and all that is in it.
12 Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them;
let all the trees of the forest sing for joy.'

This Psalm has the perfect words for a design as it clearly has lots of visual imagery to use and is also inspiring for the children at the school.  With this in mind I decided to use lots of detailed flower motifs which would lead towards the fields in the background. I particularly enjoyed including a few insects as well as my favorite animals such as birds and a hare. 

Some of the words also included the
St. Winefride's mission statement, 

​'
Learn, Laugh, Listen, Live, Love in the Presence of Jesus.'
