For a project this size, it is important for me to establish some order which naturally led me to a set of governing rules by which these works would be completed. The underlying motive here is to pay careful respect to these figures and present them in a way that helps to express the story without adding contemporary inventions.

• Do not reject a concept solely because it is difficult.
• Reject new inventions in favor of new discoveries.
• Find the human expressions in the supernatural.
• Layer meaning as the mysteries are layered.
• Build a symbol library.
• Consider the impact of prophesy and Psalms on the Mysteries
• Don’t simply depict, walk with them.
• See the metaphysical in the Mysteries

These governing rules may be expanded as necessity dictates, but for now they will serve as a guide to keep these paintings cohesive.
