Hi guys, I figured I'd start a thread like the tower girls thread, where everyone takes an attempt at one subject. Unlike the draw thread, please only post art related to the topic.

Today's focus: Mater Dolorosa
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Sorrows
>Our Lady of Sorrows (Latin: Beata Maria Virgo Perdolens), the Sorrowful Mother or Mother of Sorrows (Latin: Mater Dolorosa), and Our Lady of Piety, Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows or Our Lady of the Seven Dolours are names by which the Blessed Virgin Mary is referred to in relation to sorrows in her life. As Mater Dolorosa, it is also a key subject for Marian art in the Catholic Church.

>The Seven Sorrows of Mary are a popular Roman Catholic devotion. In common religious Catholic imagery, the Blessed Virgin Mary is portrayed in a sorrowful and lacrimating affect, with seven daggers piercing her heart, often bleeding.

So draw the mother mary, lamenting over her loss of christ, and you may or may not choose to include the 1-6 daggers piercing her heart (often stylized)

If you need more inspiration, google "Mater Dolorosa"
