Artist's Comments

For my grandfather..Rest in Peace.

This James Caviezel who played Jesus in "The passion of the Christ". I was so intrigued by his face that I had to paint him as a gift for my grandfather who was very ill at the time. My grandfather passed away a few months after. This painting was buried with him. Please be respectful when commenting, I discourage critique for the reason that this piece is finished and I do not wish to change a thing. It's flawed I realise that but this piece is special to me.

That the gloss has washed away
But you're the one whose colour's gone
From love to dirty grey:music:
