Good Friday graphics
Good Friday art should feel like the service you are holding: Tenebrae, the last words, a midday liturgy, a quiet evening. It should not say “He is risen.” That sentence belongs to Sunday. If both files use the same gold sunrise, the week collapses into one mood and the wrong one.

Say which service
- The hour, especially if people leave work for it.
- The form: stations, Tenebrae, a simple word service. Guests do not know your nickname for it.
- Whether children are expected. Some families need that in writing.

Questions
Is black required?
No. Quiet is required. A pale, spare slide can be just as serious as a black one. Easter’s palette is the thing to avoid.
