See you in HELL!!!

Yesterday i was phoned up by the curator of the Jesus Walks Exhibition and was told that my statue had been vandalised by 3 Spanish pilgrims who took offence to how i had painted my Jesus statue. They were arrested and put in jail, but after being asked we let them off with a warning. This is just hours after the exhibition opened.
So i went down to the site last night to fix it. What persued was both funny and scary.

When i arrived i found that litteraly 50 to 60 people all waiting to get a photo with my staue. There seemed to be a mixed response of both love and disgust.
When people found out i had painted the statue many questins were asked, all mostly polite....UNTIL......
This old lady was yelling, with all authority,"What are you doing, who do you think you are?"
when i turned and said "I'm the artist"
She replied "I'll pray for you when you're burning in HELL"
FULL ON!!

This is the painting before i started re-painting

So i fixed it all not as good as it use to be but, o well.
The funny thing is that Channel 7 news contacted me wanting to come down and do an interview, after waitng they called back to tell me that is impossible to get into the part of the city were i was...Crazy pilgrims, but they may call later so possible News interview coming
