This was a favorite at the Southwood Holiday House that i participated in a couple of weeks ago. I realized later I had never posted a photo of this painting. This one is done in acrylic and with alot more texture than my original which was done in oil. I hope you enjoy it!

He Is Risen!

"Behold the Lamb"

8 x 10 oil on canvas

I have been wanting to do a lamb portrait for quite some time and this week just seemed the appropriate time with it being Holy Week. I love the innocence of the portrayal of a lamb as the figure of Christ that was sacrificed for all of our sins, when He indeed had none. It says in Isaiah 53:7 "He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth." According to the Word,  Jesus Christ was indeed the Lamb of God in terms of his obedience and silent submission and he continues to be so in his glorified status. Praise the Lord the Almighty for providing for us who did not deserve anything, a way to know Him!

I have been wanting to paint sheep for awhile and just now was able to come up with a good source photo. Painting animals that are all white is challenging so I decided to give her some color! I have a rooster to post as well that is done in similar colors. I may put him down below. Thanks for looking!
