A mix media artwork, depicting a Jesus and Joseph.
The artwork is done on a wooden surface, measuring 3x5" and .5" deep. The sides are finished with gold leaf. The artwork can sit on a shelf or can hang on the wall. Beautiful from all angles! Signed on the back.
The artwork represents Jesus as a young boy riding on Joseph's shoulders, playfully shielding his eyes. The way He is inviting us into the mystery of faith is disarming and incredibly beautiful and unexpected, reminding us "for we walk by faith, not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7
Perfect for your prayer room (imagine a grouping of these little icons!) or it can make a wonderful and meaningful gift!
The artwork image combines several techniques - I transfer my original painting via acrylic medium onto the wood and use gold leaf for background, sides and accents. The metal leaf is highly reflective, reflecting the slightest light, therefore you can enjoy it in low light conditions as well.
