Look to the Shore: Tintoretto, the painting: Christ at the Sea of Galilee, the Meaning of Miracles and paintings of The Life of Jesus (The Art of God's Messages Book 2) Details

Possibly from a very young age Tintoretto thought about creating images and he continued to do so all his life… at least certainly from the days when he drew on the walls of his father’s tinting shop until a few months before his demise. He worked with a brush on fire with energy and skill and commitment to his God-given talent to bring to the world outstanding images of individuals who lived in his time and images of biblical figures that lived hundreds of years before his birth. His canvases breathe with the powerful efforts of an artistic genius. To this day he stands among the best of the best of all the artists who have ever lived. In his company would be Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Raphael Santi, Rembrandt van Rijn, El Greco, Pablo Picasso, and others. All giants whose works have withstood the tests and whims of time.“Look to the Shore” explores Tintoretto’s heritage to the world of art, which can never be underestimated. Primarily a figure painter, he found great satisfaction in foreshortening and twisting and turning his figures as he worked to translate the messages of paintings to viewers in clear, wonder-filled images. Doing that, he successfully achieved a gentleness amidst riots, a reflectiveness in death scenes, and joy among triumphs. This book also touches on the meanings of miracles and walks readers through some of the more turbulent times in the life of Jesus using the art of Tintoretto.
