At the threshold II
The threshold of a monastery is a sacred spot. It is a place that is considered to be highly venerated and sacrosanct for it is this place that marks the start of a journey of reverence and veneration.  In this work the artist tries to capture on canvas the sanctity of the threshold... the crossing of the inner barrier to a deeper spiritual revelation. Crossing the threshold depicts the submission to the will of God and of his being a true believer. The work portrays unquestioning, undying devotion. The door awaits as though urging one to push open and enter this sacred space.
