Christian Art: Warner Sallman
This man was a genius. He painted THE Head of Christ that is now seen everywhere but besides that he made some other magnificent works. A brief selection follows.

Pole dancing for Jesus
Credit to whom credit is due, I found this one on another blog, the one by Scott Bailey, called Scotteriology. You can find it here: http://scotteriology.wordpress.com. It is akin to this blog but has a slightly different accent. It is well worth checking out and I am always impressed with the fact that he manages to keep coming up with stuff.
Saint Anthony frames
A Catholic superstar today, Saint Anthony of Padua, a thirteen century saint who really should have been patron saint of frames on walls. Good thing the Catholics put aureoles on saints, making them look like astronauts!
So, I got curious and wondered why there is a lily in almost each of these depictions. A website devoted to this saint soon answered my query: "The lily represents St. Anthony's purity and his battle against the demon since childhood." (http://www.st-anthony-medal.com/symbols-of-saint-anthony.htm)
Kickass, they even have action figures!
