‘Hope’ – image drawn at Shantivanam, India

This image was sketched whilst sitting on the step of Father Bede Griffiths’s hut at Saccidananda Ashram – Shanthivanam, India, in February.  The light and colours you see on the image are the light and colours created from the sun shining through the trees there.  The original image is in black and white charcoal and was photographed where I drew it, capturing the essence of that special and precious place…
