The Wonder At The Well

This image was the one I was most proud of in this project. It’s an unusual bird’s-eye view and shows Jesus mostly as a reflection in the water. It’s the most creative way I found to show Him without directly showing Him.

Additionally, in this scene Jesus is talking to the woman about both real and figurative water. (He’s comparing his teachings to eternal water which will sate her figurative thirst forever.) So, showing the water here served the story.

A cartoon illustration depicting Jesus and a woman standing around a well.  The image uses a bird's eye view looking down into the well.  Jesus is seen in the reflection in the water below and as an arm resting on the lip of the well.  Both people are wearing Roman-style clothing from the time period of Jesus' life.
