Our Lord's Heart is indeed ineffably beautiful and satisfying: it exhausts all reality and answers all the soul's needs. The very thought of it is almost more than the mind can compass. Teilhard de Chardin S.J.

First Thoughts
Ian : it is a most wonderful work. I have spent many months now looking at images of the Sacred Heart and I think this marks a real contribution to the history and development of the image. I am completely amazed at how you been able to take so many ideas and translate and explore them in artistic terms. Although - I would think - writing a much smaller icon on that 'altar' that waits for you back home is a very different kind of process, I can now better appreciate what writing an icon is all about. I need time to reflect on the work, but my first thought is simply to say: ' wow'.
