"God's Close-Up," This American Life (2007)

Tattoos everywhere, has a beard and kind of a Red neck but when you see his artwork you don't see that you see a master piece. This man has a raw talent to catch the emotions and passion that happened thousands of years ago. He became known when he painted a portrait of God combining 4 faces of males with beards. He went on to creating portraits with Jesus. He would go around town looking for his "Jesus" and "Apostles" and these men usually didn't have money or a home to go to at night. When he found his "Jesus" his real girlfriend was not happy with him being "Jesus" because she was atheist in a very religious family. And didn't want to be around religion even if its just a painting. And Ironically her father bought the Painting of "The Last Supper". She does admire his talent but just wish her boyfriend didn't have to be involved with this religious painting.
