Description
Medium: Fine Art Canvas Giclée Print of an Original Oil Painting (2024)
The giclée print is a professional reproduction of an oil painting titled "Follow Me" which was completed in 2023 by Scott Patton. It is a stunning portrait of Jesus Christ, rendered in rich, radiant hues of purples and blues. Inspired by the verse from Matthew 4:19 — “Come, follow Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” — this artwork captures not just a likeness, but an invitation, a divine moment frozen in time where the Savior calls out to the viewer with piercing, soulful eyes.
At the heart of the portrait are Jesus’ multi-colored eyes, a mesmerizing blend of amber, green, and violet tones that seem to shift as you gaze at them. These eyes are not merely features of a face; they are windows into a soul both deeply compassionate and infinitely wise. They look directly at you, not with judgment, but with an urgent and gentle call — a personal invitation to walk beside Him. There is a penetrating quality to His gaze that stops you, holds you, and searches the deepest corners of your heart.
The artist has chosen to surround Jesus in an ethereal wash of purples and blues, symbolic of both His royal divinity and heavenly peace. The purple tones, rich and regal, speak of kingship and sacrifice — a reminder of His role as the Messiah who would suffer for humanity. The cool blues create an atmosphere of serenity and spiritual calm, offering reassurance and hope in the presence of divine authority. Together, these colors swirl and melt into one another in a soft, dreamlike fusion, framing Christ in a way that is both mystical and deeply human.
His long, flowing hair and beard are painted with soft strokes, flowing naturally with gentle movement and warmth, while His face is illuminated from within by a soft, almost supernatural light. There is a quiet strength in His expression — resolute, yet kind. The subtle play of light and shadow over His features adds depth and realism, making Him feel at once accessible and transcendent.
Every detail of this painting serves the greater message of the piece. The soft, impressionistic background fades into abstract shapes of light, subtly echoing the divine aura that surrounds Him. The composition is tight and intimate, drawing the viewer in closer, as if stepping into a holy encounter.
"Follow Me" is not just a portrait — it is a moment of divine calling. The viewer becomes the disciple on the shoreline, hearing those ancient words anew: “Come, follow Me.” The image is meant to stir the soul, to awaken a yearning to respond. It captures that sacred pause in time where one’s life can change with a single step toward the One who calls.
This painting is a work of profound beauty and spiritual power. It does not just depict Jesus — it invites you to follow Him.
