New Guild Studio designed and produced all of the following work shown in this portfolio:
*Eucharistic Chapel
The existing Eucharistic Chapel was redesigned with a striking color scheme. A cruciform design has been painted on the ceiling in rich blues with gold leafed stars.
Triptych
The triptych depicts the Blessed Mother and Christ as the "Seat of Wisdom" in the center panel. Adoring angels with censers are on the two side wings. The Romanesque triptych is an original oil painting on wood with gold leaf.
Furnishings
The tabernacle throne, kneeler, and vigil candle are original designs done in cherry wood with enameled copper accents.
Glass Window Screen
A screen was designed for the existing windows. A framework grid was made of cherry wood with inset panels of original cast glass liturgical symbols.
*Church Interior
The altar is custom designed and constructed of cherry wood with marble mensa and enameled copper accents. An existing corpus and cross have been incorporated into the custom designed cross that is suspended above the altar.
Historical Paintings
The Church is fortunate to own a series of historical religious paintings. These paintings were in poor condition. New Guild was able to restore them by relining them with new canvas, cleaning and removing the old varnish, retouching the paint, and restretching them onto new frames.
Baptistery
A baptistery was designed near the entrance to the Church. The custom designed font features moving water. The floor of the pool depicts a tile mosaic of fish, an ancient symbol of Christianity.
The ambry was designed by utilizing an existing historical font.
Church Entry
The Church entry doors are treated in a similar way as the window screen at the Eucharistic Chapel with a cherry wood grid work and cast glass panels. |
