God Blessed You by Tengko
“Pinoy art!”

Son of God. God incarnate. The Messiah. Nazarene. The King of Jews. Joshua. The Anointed One. The Prince of Peace. Liberator. Redeemer. The Wonder Counselor. Emmanuel. Son of David. And the list goes on.

Jesus has been a celebrated subject of art-related activities like sculpture (Michelangelo’s Pieta), painting, drawing, movies (The Passion of the Christ), novels (The Da Vinci Code), and even tattoos. He can be portrayed as a child in nativity scenes and can be delineated with long curly hair, wears a full beard and a robe, with a crown of thorns and either crucified or carrying a humungous cross.

Whatever name he has or however one sees Him, Jesus is surely an inspiration to most of us.
