Freedom Art Project | CA

Posted on 15:08 by john mical
The genesis for The Freedom ART Project came in 1996. This California-based project is the calling of California born artist, Jeff LeFever. The 66 Project artworks are visual interpretations the 66 books of the Canonized Bible, with the intent of being the heart of a non denominational, non doctrinal sanctuary. Each painting for each book will contain that books full text in the original language gilded in 23 Karat gold. The size of each painting is determined by the amount of scripture contained in each book - the largest book being Psalms will be 30 feet tall by about 24 feet wide, and where John 3, will be only a few square feet.
