B&W Book Artwork: A Healing in Bethesda
filed in Book Artwork and Illustrations on Aug.12, 2010
Another piece from my B&W book artwork for Victor Thorn’s Reality Bomb.
This B&W book artwork is titled A Healing in Bethesda and is based on the passage in John 5:1-15 where Jesus heals a man who is unable to walk. Obviously (as in the tradition of religious painters) I’ve updated the picture for modern times putting the guy in a wheelchair rather than on a mat. Interestingly, in the 1960s archaeologists discovered the pool that appeared in Saint John’s story.
