"Our Lord and Savior"


I love this painting of Christ, the original is done by Ted Henniger, an amazing painter by the way. It isn't in print anymore and I wanted to purchase it for my home decor, so instead I decided to recreate from a photo of the original. I took this as an opportunity to add more color and paint with my style of brushwork, putting a lot of palette knife work into the beard and highlights on the forehead. It took me about a week, a total of 24 hours. Definitely better than I expected.
