Delivered | Fine Art Print

From my studio to your home, these prints are a testament to the beauty and depth of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Utilizing the highest quality Giclee printing process with acid-free archival inks on museum-grade fine art paper, these prints capture the essence of each painting with stunning clarity and color depth. I handmake and sign each piece, reflecting my commitment to bring you timeless and affordable Christ-centered art. Choose between vertical and horizontal layouts to perfectly fit your space.

“Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.” —Psalm 69:14. Inspired by the powerful plea in these verses, "Delivered" shows the strength and love of the Savior as He pulls a drowning soul out of the depths. It is a beautiful reminder that no matter how deep the waters of our trials, Jesus Christ’s hand is always extended, ready to save us.

What I love most about this painting is the raw emotion in the moment of rescue. The grasp of Jesus' hand is strong, unwavering, and full of purpose. I wanted to focus on His hand in detail, showing the warmth and strength we all long to feel in times of distress. This piece speaks to the core of the gospel: Jesus Christ is our Deliverer, and He answers when we cry out to Him. The stormy waters surrounding the hands emphasize how His love and power overcome every wave that threatens to pull us under.

This piece holds a special meaning for me. It brings to mind times when I’ve felt overwhelmed by life’s struggles, only to find hope and strength through the Savior. Like the person being lifted from the water, I have felt the Savior’s steady and compassionate hand pulling me up, bringing peace when all seemed lost. We all face moments when we feel like we’re sinking, but the Savior’s promise is sure—He will always be there to deliver us.

“Delivered” makes a perfect addition to any home, church, or office space as a testimony of the Savior’s redeeming love. It’s an inspiring gift for anyone who is seeking strength, hope, or encouragement that they are never alone. Display it where you can see it often, and let it strengthen your faith in Jesus Christ’s power to rescue. He truly is our Deliverer, and His love never fails.

This process ensures a reproduction that is virtually indistinguishable from the original artwork.

Care Instructions for Your Art Print

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.

Embellished Print Option

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.

Layout Option

I offer both vertical and horizontal layout options. When deciding between vertical and horizontal layouts for your space, consider the following tips:

1. Wall Space: Measure your wall space to determine which layout fits best. Vertical prints are ideal for narrow walls or spaces between windows and doors, while horizontal prints work well on wider walls, such as those above couches or beds.
   
   
2. Room Dimensions: Consider the dimensions of the room. Vertical prints can help make a room with lower ceilings feel taller, while horizontal prints can make a room with higher ceilings feel more balanced.
   
   
3. Furniture Placement: Think about where your furniture is positioned. Horizontal prints often complement long pieces of furniture like sofas and sideboards, whereas vertical prints pair well with tall furniture like bookcases or cabinets.
   
   
4. Visual Flow: Choose a layout that enhances the flow of your room. Vertical prints can draw the eye upwards, adding a sense of height, while horizontal prints can lead the eye across the room, creating a sense of width and continuity.
   
   
5. Grouping: If you plan to create a gallery wall, mix both vertical and horizontal layouts for a dynamic and visually interesting display.

The Story Behind the Art

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.
