Alpha and Omega Cross

Our Church is having an auction to raise money for one of the missions.  Pam wanted to donate something so I carved this cross.  It is pretty obvious why it is called the Alpha and Omega cross when you see the picture.  Reference is Revelations 22:13 NIV " I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."

The base cross is walnut one of my favorite woods to carve but also very expensive and hard to find in suitable (knot free) pieces.  The middle cross is poplar and the top cross is again walnut with a brass accent.  The cross is 17" tall.  Look for a future post of how I proportion these crosses.

Hope all is well with you.

Go carve something!
