Christian art

    Christian art-an era of glory wherein Christians expressed their love towards God and Jesus Christ. This is the period wherein the religion was accepted by the Roman emperor-Constantine and people are free to choose their favored religion. The period which Christians have took out  their repressed emotion to create beautiful relief sculptures, mosaics, frescoes and holy imagery.

    As its titular name, I expected it to have Holy scriptures and Bible events as its predominant subject matter. Although, as of today, it may look somewhat ancient (the mosaics and painting style), as a Catholic, I feel that when I see an art, I can almost see a "Holy" word written in  invisible text. That, and I somehow feel some kind of utter wonder and amazement in my chest. The Romanesque style(circular domes) and the Gothic style(pointed arch) are blessings of the architecture world. The manuscript illumination (which also influenced Renaissance  in its early years) was a beautiful imagery that we can see in books nowadays, albeit it was quite rare.

   The dome style of the Romanesque and the pointed style of Gothic is what I use when I draw manors and sketch cathedrals. In fact, I'm quite a fan myself of the Gothic style. It just simply fascinates my eyes. Even though it is very much in detail and may require patience, it is very enjoying to look at once your finish with your hard work. Also the mosaics ideal to this era is something that I have used a lot of times.

   Most of this works are historical and important-especially the detailed containers of holy relics. Time may have passed, this era hadn't failed to flourish and live in us.
