Jesus' face has been painted many times through out history. This is my spin on the age old paintings. During the conference this last week I felt lead to try and paint it once again. I had the privilege of painting on stage Friday afternoon for the close of the conference. It turned out differently than planned but I think it was for the better. I used a technique I had never used before that I sort of stumbled upon with the Holy Spirit's help. I painted 'wet on wet' on raw canvas with pre-primed sections. Definitely fun ragging on most of the paint. I even messed up on His left eye and later realized the mark formed his iris. Pretty cool I thought. God healed many people this last week which was amazing to witness and be apart of, but I have to say one of my favorite parts was watching so many people get ridiculously drunk in the spirit and filled with joy (including myself). Yes, there is joy in his presence! May this painting impart joy to your life today knowing that you have been purchased for a price, your sins are covered by his blood, your health has been PAID FOR in full! God is so Good!
After I finished painting it people began asking me if I added gold sparkles because there was a sparkle in Jesus' eye that kept catching the light. I didn't use any metallic or gold paint, not even a paint with a sheen, just flat acrylic paint. More and more golden sparkles have begun showing up in different places over the canvas.
