The Invitation

The Invitation is rendered in oil on canvas at 18x24, drawing from Matthew 9:9, Matthew's transformative encounter with Christ at the beginning of Jesus ministry. This work explores the enduring nature of spiritual calling—a perpetual invitation extended across centuries to embrace discipleship and transformation. Through deliberate composition and masterful technique, the painting captures the profound moment of recognition and the choice to answer a higher calling. It invites you to follow Jesus as well. The gold frame the canvas is encased in lifts the piece to an elegant state.
