24 x 36 Oil on Canvas. Commissioned by Dr Roberts for his reception room. Many hidden Christian symbols: Praying hands, Shield with Cross, Star of Bethlehem, Crown, Menorah, Sword, Star of David, Dove, Crucifix, and Fish. Although not intentional with this painting, some have said the face of Jesus can be seen between the Poinsettia and Candlesticks.
Prints/prices available thru artist via e-mail.

| Artist Reply: Thank you so much for taking the time to view my work! This painting was commisioned by Dr Shane Roberts. He has it hanging in his waiting room. He wanted something filled with Christian symbols that could hang all year round and he has his office decorated in antiques. He requested poinsettias, the crown of thorns and the colors to match his office so this made it really difficult to pull it together. I bought flowers, the vase, etc and arranged it on one of my bedroom dressers and took a picture which I used for the basis of the painting. (you should have seen me trying to shine a light on the arrangement with a flashlight and take a photo with the other hand at the same time - Ha Ha!) Here are all the symbols hidden in the painting (not counting the symbolisms that are obvious): three crosses, three doves, a sword, a shield, a jeweled crown, fish symbol, praying hands, jewish manora, and star of david. | ||
