Greater Love Hath No Man

Casey Childs, Greater Love Hath No Man, Oil on Linen, 60x48″

After nearly a year of work and research on this painting, it is half finished. My goal is to paint a dipytch, but this half of the painting is done.

I finished this in time to enter into the Spiritual & Religious show at the Springville Museum in Springville UT. I hope you'll go check it out!

    Hi Casey,
    I would like to see your painting in person, it's great. However living in North Carolina makes that impossible. When will we get to see the other half?

    Hey Tim, I'm not sure--the other half is only at the concept stage right now and since this is a project I took on myself, I need to find someone to invest in the painting so I will be able to finish the entire idea. Thanks for the comment.

    And thanks Nelson! We'll do. :)

    I clicked on a link posted by a Facebook friend of mine (and fellow caricaturist), Vincenzo Patzo, because I was very impressed with the realism in a portrait of yours. Imagine my surprise when the first painting I saw on your blog was a scene from Church history. I'm a Mormon myself, and it's great to see such excellent artistry combined with a tribute to a key moment in my religion's past. Beautiful work!

    I saw this painting last year in the Church art museum in SLC and just now found your blog. Your painting is stunning! I rounded the corner, saw it and it brought me to tears - the emotion is so real, so close to the surface. Congratulations on your talent and hard work! And thank you for sharing it.
