Over those 30 years, he mixed mud and clay for bricks with straw to form the mountain's surface and used various paints to transform the land into a vibrant spectrum of colors. Leonard recounts how challenging it was to work under scorching heat exceeding 40 degrees every day*

The Theme is 'GOD IS LOVE'

The message he embedded in this creation is "God's love"* This message is written at the top of the hill, beneath a large cross ♪
