Mary and Christ Child by Chuck Marshall

This painting depicts a tender moment between Mary and the infant Jesus, as she gently kisses his cheek. The artist, Chuck Marshall, uses oil on canvas to create a realistic and intimate portrait of the mother and son. The neutral palette of tans and browns evokes a sense of warmth and serenity, while the close-up view of their faces invites the viewer to share in their affection. This is a beautiful example of Marshall's skill and sensitivity as a painter.
