Artwork Description

The Good Shepherd

11.5 x 11.0 inches

The Good Shepherd is an acrylic painting on canvas that beautifully captures the tender symbolism of divine care and redemption. The artwork portrays the shepherd holding a sheep that had wandered far from the flock, with the distant silhouettes of other sheep along the horizon — a powerful reminder of God’s unending love and mercy. This piece draws inspiration from the biblical passage where Jesus speaks of leaving the ninety-nine to find the one lost sheep, revealing the compassion and pursuit of the divine heart. Through gentle brushwork, soft light, and emotive tones, the artist conveys themes of forgiveness, guidance, and restoration.
