Home at Last | Signed Handmade Art Print

Have you ever wondered what your first moments in heaven will feel like? My newest piece, "Home at Last," imagines that beautiful moment when we finally meet the Savior face-to-face. Inspired by the powerful promise of 1 Corinthians 13:12, "Home at Last" shows Jesus smiling joyfully, running to greet a woman as she arrives in heaven. The scripture says, “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” "Home at Last" is a loving reminder that one day we will fully know and experience Christ’s perfect love.

What I love most about this painting is how joyful and welcoming Jesus looks as He runs toward the woman. I carefully chose to depict Him this way because it perfectly reflects the Savior's personal love and excitement in welcoming us home. It helps me picture the joyful reunion we all hope for and look forward to in heaven, as promised in the scriptures. Seeing Christ so eager and full of joy helps me better understand His infinite love and His desire to bring each of us safely home.

As I created this scene, I thought about loved ones who have passed on, and the comfort it brings to know that we’ll see them again in heaven. I also thought about how wonderful it will be to finally experience the full presence and embrace of Jesus. I hope that when you look at Home at Last, you will also feel peace, hope, and excitement for that joyful reunion we all await.

Think about how uplifting it will feel to have "Home at Last" displayed in your home—a daily reminder of the eternal joy awaiting us. With its warm colors, peaceful setting, and joyful scene, it will bring both beauty and spiritual comfort into your home. It's also the perfect gift for loved ones, friends, or anyone who needs reassurance that they are deeply known, loved, and cherished by the Savior.

To perfectly fit your space and style, "Home at Last" is available in several beautiful formats. Choose from standard sizes for easy framing and placement in your favorite rooms, or enjoy the striking, ultra-wide landscape version, perfect for above sofas, beds, or entryways. For a truly breathtaking and modern statement piece, consider the stunning 3-panel set—each panel working seamlessly together to celebrate the full beauty and meaning of this heavenly reunion. Whichever option you select, "Home at Last" will become a cherished centerpiece in your home, continually reminding your family of the joyful promise of eternal life with Christ.

• Art prints ship unframed.
  
  
• Expect a slight variation in color depending on your device's display settings.
  
  
• Depending on the size you buy, cropping may occur. I take care to create the best cropping for your selected size.
  
  
• Each art print is listed by sheet size with a half inch margin around the artwork. For example, when you select a 5x7 print, the art itself is sized at 4x6, surrounded by a half-inch margin. This design ensures that when you frame your new artwork, every detail of the piece is visible and showcased.
  

• Printing Process: Each art print is created using a state-of-the-art Giclee printing technique, which offers one of the highest degrees of accuracy and richness of color available in printmaking techniques. This process ensures a reproduction that is virtually indistinguishable from the original artwork.
  
  
• Ink and Paper Quality: I use acid-free archival inks and museum-grade fine art paper to guarantee that each print meets the highest standards of quality and remains fade-resistant for up to 100 years under proper care.
  
  
• Sizes Available: Prints are available in several sizes to perfectly fit your space. Each size is carefully chosen to maintain the integrity and proportions of the original artwork.
  
  
• Handmade and Signed: Every print is handmade and personally signed in the margin by me.
  
  
• Packaging: To ensure that your print arrives in pristine condition, I package it securely with the utmost care. I use protective sleeves and rigid mailers for smaller prints, and robust tubes or boxes for larger sizes, all designed to protect your artwork during transit.
  
  
• Shipping: I provide tracking information for each shipment so you can follow your art's journey to its new home. 
  
  

To ensure that your art print remains a vibrant and inspiring part of your space for years to come, please follow these care instructions:

• Display Away from Direct Sunlight: To preserve the colors and prevent fading, position your print away from direct sunlight. Even though the archival inks are designed to be long-lasting, sunlight can accelerate the aging process.
  
  
• Use Proper Framing: Protect your print by framing it behind UV-protective glass or acrylic. This not only adds an extra layer of protection against sunlight but also enhances the display of your artwork. Note: I prepare hand embellished prints using a special protective sealer so that you can display the print without glass, just like an original painting.
  
  
• Handle with Care: When handling your print, consider using clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. The natural oils from skin can affect the paper and inks over time.
  
  
• Avoid Humidity: Try to hang your print in an environment with stable and moderate humidity. Excessive moisture can lead to paper warping or ink degradation.
  
  
• Dust Gently: To clean the surface of your print or its protective glass, use a soft, dry, and lint-free cloth. Gently wipe away dust without applying pressure, which could scratch the surface.

By following these care instructions, you can enjoy the beauty and inspiration of your divine art print for many generations. Thank you for inviting this sacred piece into your home.

For those seeking an even more personalized and tactile experience with their chosen art piece, I offer an exclusive embellished print option. This optional process allows you to enhance your fine art print with hand-applied details that elevate the artwork to a new level of depth and vibrancy.

What is an Embellished Print? Each embellished print is carefully hand-finished by me, the artist, using high-quality acrylic paints and gel medium. This process involves adding textured brushstrokes and highlights to the print, meticulously following the contours and color variations of the original painting. The result is a unique piece that bridges the gap between a standard print and an original painting, offering a textural and visual richness that elevates the original artwork.

Why Choose an Embellished Print?

• Enhanced Texture and Depth: The added brushstrokes and textures bring a dynamic, three-dimensional quality to the print, making the art come alive on your walls.
  
  
• Unique Artistry: With each embellishment, your print becomes a one-of-a-kind work of art, imbued with a personal touch and creative vision.
  
  
• Increased Value: Embellished prints hold greater value due to their enhanced uniqueness and the additional artist's labor involved in creating them.

How to Add the Embellished Print Option: When purchasing your print, simply select the "Hand Embellished" option on the product page before adding the print to your cart. Please note that this process requires additional creation time, ensuring that each embellishment meets the highest standards of quality and beauty.

My name is Chris Brazelton, and The Painted Gospel is a ministry to share my original Christ-centered art. Every painting begins in a place of reflection and prayer, where I seek guidance and draw inspiration from the scriptures. Each painting is rooted in a specific Biblical story or passage, and made to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. You'll find these stories detailed in the descriptions of each painting, inviting you to explore and connect with the deeper messages they convey. I hope that each piece shines as a beacon in any space to strengthen the faith of your family, friends, visitors, small group, or congregation. These pieces also make perfect gifts for loved ones on any occasion.
