More About This Artistic Reproduction of the Original Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe
In my desire to become a better artist for Our Lord I turned to Mother Mary’s intercession.
As a teen I kept a magazine cut-out of an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe in my prayer corner. As I prayerfully contemplated the picture of the artwork of Our Lady I found my self drawn to a more profound realization of Mother Mary’s presence. And yet with each glance I also became more aware of the aged, protruding seams of the garment, the water stains from the 1629 flood, and the overall soiled look that built up over the centuries before it was placed behind glass.
Inside my heart I felt driven to make a reproduction that would “clean it up” (if only a little) without altering the way it look originally in anyway. I so longed to see more clearly the way Our Lady originally painted it.
After I obtained a copy of a high resolution photograph I began my work to make a faithful reproduction.
However, during the work I learned that sometime after 1926 there were alterations done to the original image that slightly changed the overall appearance of the face.
Therefore, I located a 1923 photograph of the original image of Our Lady of Guadalupe as a reference for making the reproduction of the face so that I could get as close as possibly to the original look of her face.
