Joseph protecting Mary and Jesus


I painted this oil to represent the trust God showed in Joseph.  I think as a father figure he has not been represented as much as Mary has been as Jesus's mother.  So I wanted to depict Joseph's strength, caring and nuturing (the blanket) and his paternal nature. 

The background of the painting depicts Jesus's journeys as an adult.  After being in the security of Joseph and Mary's care. 

God's light is shining on the family, and Jesus is playing with the rays.

Price: $200.00 AUD plus freight

Painting Size: 45cm x 60 cm (17.5" x 23.5")


A loving Mary

A protective Joseph


Baby Jesus
