"Agnus Dei"
Lamb of God
from Bach's Mass in B Minor
36" x 24"
This last painting interpreting Bach's masterpiece is quite different than the first three. I worried a bit about that. You often see artists whose paintings all look "the same", you can readily recognize their work. All I can say is that when I listened to this last movement called Agnus Dei, the music changed, it simplified, its tone was subdued and softened. I actually had a different idea for the bottom two/thirds of the painting, with a little more movement. But everything in my being told me to stop. I love the simplicity of it as do I love the image of Christ as the Lamb of God. I followed the music.
You can see a video montage of each of these paintings while listening to the music that inspired it. It is very meditative. I hope the color, texture and movement carry you more deeply into the music. Go to www.RobynSandAnderson.com. Hover over the tab "Interpreting Bach's Mass in B Minor" and the four sub-tabs beneath.
