A Network of Christian Fellowship for Comics Fans, Pros, and Amateurs
My first Jesus picture I ever drew. Many years ago. I've definately grown as an artist since then. I used a paint brush which I regret doing. But at the time I was impatient and didn't have pens so I used a brush. Ah well live and learn.

Comment by Christopher Haupt on January 26, 2012 at 9:34am Thank you. I agree about the sheep. The "you did something here" might be the fact that I used a brush and it brings out a different mood.... maybe? Or it could be the mood of the piece itself. If you figure it out let me know.
I was going to paint it but I knew I wouldn't be able to paint it the way I see it in my head. Now that I know how to color in photoshop I might give it a try. I'm working on a children's book for a writer, and after I finish it I want to color the black and whites you see on my page.
Really though thanks for your words... it helps me to look at this piece with different eyes.
Comment by Martin Murtonen on January 26, 2012 at 8:41am Mr. Haupt - this is my favorite piece from you. That you used a brush adds to the authenticity. You did something here, that isn't in the rest of your work. Hard to put a finger on it. There are some things like the sheep blend a bit into the mud, but overall, this has a really interesting feeling to it.

Comment by David Duarte on September 4, 2010 at 12:45pm The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011
In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.
Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
