Until Shiloh Comes
mixed media on paper on panel
48 x 48 inches
This painting was one of six paintings for the Christmas Invitational at the Asheville Art Museum. (’93) It is available as a giclee print on paper and a giclee on canvas.
Christ is the Lion and the Lamb. He is the King and the Shepherd. His Incarnation is the subject of Christmas. In this painting a nativity scene is heralded by angels and a rending veil. The scepters / shepherd’s crooks reference The Lion of Judah, who holds a scepter of justice and The Shepherd who guides and protects His sheep. The scepters are high-lighted in gold on the giclee prints making each reproduction unique.
(The scepter shall not depart from Judah until Shiloh comes… Genesis 49:10.)
