This is the first version of the painting The King Who Conquered Death. I was very unhappy with the rendition , and after 6 month of it hanging over my bed I decided to put a second effort in to making this painting a worth while work of art to look at. The second version of this painting is rendered on top of the first one. When illustrating,and communicating the truths of God,one has to work hard at producing high quality work,as not to prohibit the viewer from being able to intrepid the message in the painting.
