Bulletproof Jesus

Oil Painting

Artist Statement
The figure in the piece is posed similar to Jesus on the cross while the image on his vest portrays him after he has risen. Religious iconography is used to stylize the character and his equipment. A flock of black doves emerges from the background surrounding him. I always liked stories in which weapons or tools were blessed in some way to combat the damned.
The views expressed by our artists in their artist statements do not necessarily represent the views of our art galleries. Artists can be visually expressive but may verbally misrepresent their true intentions or ideas. Please note that we support expression, whether it is controversial or not, but our intention is never to offend.
