| 13 Nov 2004 | Flibberchick | well the message isn't quite right. it's saying that God forsake Jesus for this supposed "self-righteous suicide" when actually he cried out those words because at that moment he took on all the sin of the world, so that it would be "nailed to the cross" when he died.  Daniel Offrell replies: "I like to think it more as if Jesus himself despaired for a short while and lost faith. Then whehn said something like: I lay myself in your arms, then he saw his purpose again and sacrificed himself for humanity.But you should mail me personally if you want to continue this discussion  " | |
| 13 Nov 2004 | Flibberchick | I knew what song it was...But what is the exact inspiration? And not so. Suicide is when you kill yourself and you couldnt even consider as an assisted suicide. He was clearly murdered. And suicide is practically always to leave this life. Why would you commit suicide and then come back?  Daniel Offrell replies: "To show that he could?
AS far as I understand it Jesus went to Jerusalem knowing that he was going to be killed and with the conscious purpose of being killed. Sure it wasn't technically suicide, but you could definately compare it to suicide. Anyway the inspiration came from the corous where of that song where they allude to Jesus death." | |

| 25 Jun 2005 | Karen | I love the face, and the hands, and the feet, and well all of it! The torso seems to be a teeny bit on the small side but the muscle definition is right on. Out of curiousity could you put up the song lyrics that inspired you to draw this, I don't listen to secular music and I was just wondering... But totally awesome job much appreciation to a talented artist!  Daniel Offrell replies: "OK
"I don't think you trust/ in my/ selfrighteous suicide/ I cry/ when angels deserve to die"" | |
