This turquoise hue seems to be a favorite of Lofton. Using a monochromatic color and pseudo symmetrical design scheme, the artist seems undaunted by the fundamentals mine field of using these two elements to create visual interest. To counteract the strict geometric build-up of linear forms he uses strips of canvas to outline forms creating a tactile quality to the surface. A visibly pregnant female occupies the lower right corner of the work led by a procession of figures. A question mark hovers over the church as seen in another painting by the artist. Lofton leaves the observer to attach their own meaning to the scene presented.
