Liturgical Murals | Martin Earle | Sacred Art and Church Furnishings

This year saw the completion of a church redecoration project at St Francis Catholic Church in Baddesley Clinton, UK. As well as making designs for the decoration of the nave and baptistery, I undertook a set of murals in the sanctuary.

The murals are intricately painted with scenes from salvation history - from the preparation of Israel in the Old Testament to the Lord's Second Coming.

Above all, their aim is to give visual expression to the invisible realities of the liturgy.

Please scroll down to explore the murals and their meaning. In total around forty angels, prophets and saints are depicted, along with numerous animals.

I was assisted thoughout the project by talents and heroic work of Lisa Abbot and, in the last month or so, the skills of Jim Blackstone.
