Now, I "Found" Jesus

in #originalworks6 years ago

Sorry for the Delay

It took some extra time to get Jesus, The Holy Filament finished, as a local artist found me on the street and gave me a roof over my head for a few days. This was a nice gesture but, it makes it harder to get work done when there is so much philosophical conversation happening about Satan owning the world.

The other morning I was broke at a coffee shop and a young Christian Missionary offered to pay for my coffee in exchange for conversation. Upon learning of his religious roots, I shoved ol' Jesus H. Christ in his face and he immediately went to demonizing the third eye and associating it with the drug culture. As if the Big J never fasted for 3 days and induced an LSD like trip?

Everything is Idolatry

So, what does this piece mean? It means I am broke and selling out. $200 for this guy. It took 4 days to make it. It is one of my most highly coveted drawings and should be sold for $40,000 so I can actually get my life together. Sad to say, my best offer for it so far is two blank canvases for me to paint onto. I own no paint nor have the means to tote canvas work while homeless.

Awesome! More to come so as long as there is life in this vessel. <3

Cool man, to broke to buy art, but I wish you good luck, maybe you could print this, Im sure almost any good christian would pay a few bucks for a nice alternative looking Jesus.

There are many theories about Jesus being something like a Buddhist monk who possibly went to India for a pilgrimage in his early years and that he was influenced by and learnt many mystical teachings on this journey.

I might do prints of this one. The photo didn't come out too bad and I know the Big J is a hot item in this world that is hijacked by "Satan". Thanks for the support, friend!

I hope you can forgive me I took the freedom to do some work with the contrast/brightness and brilliance and such on your photo, did not edit the original photo, I just messed around with some settings to make the colors look a bit more intense, those pictures below should be high-quality enough to download and print please feel free to do so if you want.

@friendly-fenix! Thank you so much! That saves me some work! I sold a drawing too so I have the $$$ to create a few prints. You must of known that I would be somehow ok with this and the universe was aligned? :D

No problem it's your art work, just did a couple of light "touch-ups", thought that might be useful for printing proposes.

And I know you are on the road, I know it's hard to properly document the art and prepare for print, with like a rain-drenched phone or laptop etc...

But if you change your mind, I can just take them down from the comment...

Cheers!

P.S.
Not a Jesus freak, but that Jesus image made me feel really good inside!
Thanks for sharing!

I love it! Thanks! You on Dischord?

Nah... Not my kind of place... Long story...
But many people here love it and are actively trying to recruit as many steemians as possible to join discord, (each to his/her own).

But Im here and I do use steem.chat sometimes if I have to...

I use steemit as a kind of refuge from my normal boring life, so Im social but not to a 100%, some people post selfies and their real names and such, I have a more private approach specially since all this crazy stuff we write is going to be saved in the blockchain forever...

I still see this as an experiment I decided to stay a bit private for at least a year, just to test the waters so to speak...

Hope you are doing well my steemit friend!

I only asked because my resource credits limit me to only commenting like, 3 times a day. lol... maybe I will check out this Steemchat? Take care!
