Glorious Jesus

I've always been obsessed with old Catholic and Orthodox Iconography and Symbols. I'd wanted to do an icon of Jesus for a while, but one day as I was looking at another complex badge/mandala design I had done, I had the idea of combining the two concepts and giving Jesus the overly elaborate halo that he deserves.

The Hebrew text around his head is from Psalm 45:15:
"But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead; he will surely take me for himself."
