"Christ leaving"
oil on canvas, 2,0*1,7 m, 2000
Christ theme and our society problems are touching me. I`m waiting your comments about this work and welcome to my gallery http://Painterilya.narod.ru/indexE.htm (here you can see the fragmenta of the "Christ...")
I have some problem: I`m using old masters technique and I need white lead. May be somebody knows where I can find it?

Your style reminds me a bit of Salvador Dali's religious-themed compositions. (That, and a lot of old master's paintings, whose techniques and themes you seem to be attempting to learn from.)

The only criticism I can offer at this late hour in the evening is that I think Jesus's shoulders and head reads kind of funny in the "christ leaving" piece but it otherwise looks well very done.

Also, since I'm an atheist I'm not too big on religious imagery myself, but I have to say that this is really great stuff.
I hope the best for both you and your skill/talent. :)
