I've just placed online a photo of my latest painting, John the Beloved.
The painting is 17X24", oil on Masonite, and depicts John, Jesus' beloved disciple, on his way to do the work of the Lord, looking toward the light.
He holds a pot, symbolizing his capacity to accept and carry the Holy Spirit and his ability to pour it out on others. The rope symbolizes his life. One end trails off the bottom of the picture, showing that his life would not end until Christ's work was done.
I hope to enter this shortly in the annual Portrait Society of America International Portrait Competition. Results posted later. Wish me luck!
