'Last Supper' mural as gift for Pope

'Last Supper' mural as gift for PopeThe first ever mural painting of Jesus Christ's 'Last Supper' using purely temple art techniques, meant as Kerala's gift to the Pope, is getting the finishing touches at the Vasthu Vidya Gurukulam at Aranmula in Pathanamthitta district.
Artist Suresh had been working on it for over six months. Before that, laborious groundwork had gone into the research, tempering the 6x4 asbestos table on which the work is done and preparation of the natural colours out of limestone and leaves.

Can I use your mural paintings as reference for my mural painting?
