Description
Original oil on canvas, mounted on hardboard: copyright 2001 Patrick Pierson The design for this painting includes an extreme example of foreshortening with respect to Christ's right hand seemingly reaching outward from the surface of the image toward you, the viewer, as well as the cross that bears Jesus high above the earth (in fact, the very place in which he was crucified); Christ has pulled his left arm away from the cross to reach out and touch the hand of God, thus the title of the painting - THE CROSSING. Also, the supernovae behind Jesus appeared in the night sky at the time of the crucifixion. Visit www.PlanetZootopia.com
