Annual Easter-time referral post

Just about every year I refer folks to a couple different blogs. One is humorous. This is the other one. Kittredge Cherry at Jesus in Love blog began her annual Passion of the Christ: Gay Vision posts today, featuring artwork that reimagines the Passion from a more contemporary, and queer, perspective.

Do. Not. Miss. This.

This year all 24 paintings in Douglas Blanchard's epic "Passion of the Christ" series will be featured, and the postings will go on for three weeks. If you've seen some of Blanchard's work in previous years at Jesus in Love, you know this is fabulous stuff. If you haven't seen it, why not?

Go. And return each day for the next one. You will be moved.

(I'll post the other referral closer to Holy Week...)

As promised, the sillier Easter link is for perennial favorite, The Passion of the Tchotchke, with some of the most spectacularly kitschy Easter 'art' you will ever see in one place. Enjoy!
