I would have to say that this piece is one of my favorites. The portrayal of Baby Jesus as a skeleton was meant as a foreshadow to his predestined end. I was raised Catholic but I'm not devout. I do have a deep fascination with the story of the man called Jesus, even if elements of the story were borrowed from past deities. I made this for my Mother (and yes, she also loves this piece).

Baby Jesus is quite adorable, albeit he is a skeleton. Great work Senor Esteban! I look forward to seeing more exciting pieces from this infamous latin lover/painter
