HE CAME


This 30” x 75” painting started with the graduated sky leading down to a low horizon line with the upside down cross painted lightly at the bottom (to foreshadow the sacrifice to come). During the service, the star was added at the top of the painting, the swaddled baby Jesus was painted, and the hills and land mass were added at the bottom. Actually, the face of baby Jesus had been painted prior to the service and was covered with frisket which was removed during the service.
