Briton Riviere Painting Christ In the Wilderness

Jesus Christ in the wilderness
All alone as the sun rose red
Fighting His battle of humanness
Jesus Christ in the wilderness
To save man~ Christ's devoutness
Although the bloody cross His dread
Jesus Christ in the wilderness
All alone as the sun rose red

Isaiah Zerbst July 18, 2013 at 6:07 PM This form looks challenging, but you did very well with it! It brings the wilderness and the troubles of Christ to life. It is truly amazing that He remained on the earth knowing what was in store for Him on the cross. Excellent job of picturing all this!
