Art is universal. Every day, we see and touch art unknowingly as it manifests itself in different forms such as photographs, music, and words. Most artists correlate their craft through emotions and shared stories, shaping art in their own unique concepts.
Recently, the Facebook page Arkitekyuklid went viral because of the caricatures he posted on Bible characters depicted as modern-day people. As of this writing, the drawings, which were created by Euclid Templonuevo, garnered more than 10,000 shares and 3,000 reactions.
In an interview with InqPOP!, Templonuevo said, “People will praise you for your work, on the other hand, there are people who will criticize you and say negative things about you, [and] even judge you. So everything I do, I always make sure that it will glorify the Lord.”
He also added that, as a Christian and an artist, this is his own way of spreading God’s word.
Check out some of his creative works:
