Celebrate Easter’s Promise With Thomas Blackshear’s Christian Gifts Of Hope and Forgiveness

March 29, 2010 - PRLog -- Ripon, CA,– Gift giving doesn’t have to be limited to Christmas and birthdays, for Christians, Easter commemorates Christ’s victory over death with the promise of everlasting life. Reason enough to celebrate this holy day with meaningful gifts like those in Thomas Blackshear’s Ebony Visions™ Collection. Inspired by his faith in Christ, Blackshear has created many works that bare witness to his conviction.

These artistic renditions make appropriate gifts for Easter, like Blackshear’s first porcelain sculpted figure, Ascent Into Glory. According to the bible, it was an angel who first told of Christ’s resurrection. “He is not here, for he is risen.” Now, you can honor those words with this handsome angel figure from the Ebony Visions™ Collection. Rising above the clouds into heaven, his dark matte skin a soothing contrast to the smooth cool surface of his white wings and gold trimmed robe, Ascent Into Glory will be appreciated by collectors of African-American fine art, black angels, and religious gifts.

Also part of the Ebony Visions™ Collection, The Wise Man and The Camel, the third release in a 4-year Nativity figurine series. Painstakingly detailed, these colorful pieces will look stunning displayed alone or complementing an existing collection.

Some pieces of art have the power to make people stop in their tracks. One such painting is Blackshear’s Forgiven. To symbolize the compassion of Christ, Blackshear’s painting, represents the sin that was forgiven at Mt. Calvary. A broken man in the arms of Christ, in his hands he holds a mallet and a spike. Part of the MasterPeace Collection, Forgiven is available in many sizes from small prints to an impressive life-sized version on canvas measuring a full 72” tall. Also available for Easter Outreach are the Forgiven witness cards, displaying the stunning artwork of Thomas Blackshear coupled with a compelling message by Roy Lessin.
