Original artwork description:

One thing I thoroughly enjoy about making these small paintings is that it allows me to experiment and see if something works or not. On this painting we see a man enjoying Kiss Of Judas painted by Giotto in ±1304.

The Kiss of Judas is also known as the Betrayal of Christ. It shows how Judas identified Jesus to the multitude with swords and clubs who had come to arrest him.

The kiss is given by Judas in the Garden of Gethsemane after the Last Supper and leads directly to the arrest of Jesus by the police force of the Sanhedrin. I tried to paint it as if my figure was there as well.

Materials used:

Acrylic on masonite
