This artist’s rendition of Christ stopped me in my tracks. What struck me first was the authenticity—His features reflect His Jewish heritage in a way that feels both real and reverent. His eyes hold a depth that blends strength with gentleness, a kindness wrapped in calm authority. It’s a reminder that Jesus wasn’t just a distant figure in stained glass, but a real man who walked the earth, taught with compassion, and carried hope into every room He entered.
To me, Rob’s As He Ponders is the most realistic portrayal of Christ I’ve seen. Too often, artists depict Him as if He were a Stanford surfer—more like Patrick Swayze’s character in Point Break than the Son of God. But here, in this painting, I see a Christ I feel close to. A Savior whose humanity and divinity are both present. A Shepherd whose presence still brings hope and comfort into my home. I wish I could buy the original painting.
