Jesus Falls the First Time -Way of the Cross Drawing

Jesus Falls the First Time -3rd Station Ink Pointillism on Off-White Bristol Board I used only dots for this drawing depicting the third station of the Cross: Jesus Falls the First Time. I have drawn the entire 14 and they are all available too. The Stations of the Cross or the Way of the Cross, also known as the Way of Sorrows or the Via Crucis, refers to a series of images depicting Jesus Christ on the day of his crucifixion and accompanying prayers. Meditation: In Jesus's fall beneath the weight of the Cross, the meaning of his whole life is seen: his voluntary abasement, which lifts us up from the depths of our pride. The nature of our pride is also revealed: it is that arrogance which makes us want to be liberated from God and left alone to ourselves, the arrogance which makes us think that we do not need his eternal love, but can be the masters of our own lives. Let us strip away our sense of self-sufficiency, our false illusions of independence, and learn from him, the One who humbled himself, to discover our true greatness by bending low before God and before our downtrodden brothers and sisters.
