FaithQuest 2010 - "Jesus as Substitute"

This series is regarding the paintings 'performed' during Faith Quest 2010.  The weekend revolved around a movie theme and the speakers played with different characterizations of Jesus as found primarily in the Gospel of John.  This painting was painted while Ryan Woods spoke on 'Jesus as Substitute.' 




With this one the image is pretty straightforward but the process was key.  Ryan actually started out trying to paint a self portrait of himself and the above picture is as far as he got.  Then I came in as 'The Substitute' and transformed Ryan's 'self' into a picture of Jesus. (You can still make out some of the brown to the left of Jesus' head that are the remnants of Ryan's 'hair')
