Jesus Christ, son of Mary and Joseph. The man from Nazareth who was first whipped and then crucified to death over 2000 years ago because he stood for something that his contemporaries perceived as threatening. History repeat itself and the list is long even though those who suffered a similar fate were not exalted. They were human. Abraham Lincoln, Emiliano Zapata, Mahatma Gandhi, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Robert Kennedy, Boris Nemtsov to name a few. I'm not a religious person and think it has been an important approach because I primarily wanted to paint a historical picture. I wanted to portray this man as first and foremost a descendant of ordinary people. Will such a portrait then make him a less important figure from the past? Will he not be more like one of us? Jesus, the King of the Jews, claimed to be the Son of God, but are we not all?

Jon Bøe Paulsen is an award-winning painter from Norway, renowned for his neo-realist portraits that have earned him international recognition over the past four decades. His journey into the art world began in high school through theatre workshops, where he learned the art of self-control—a skill that has profoundly influenced his approach to painting.

Paulsen's work is characterized by its strong, figurative style, where he conveys single narratives with powerful characters. He employs minimal light and a restricted color palette, adhering to the principles of clair-obscur (chiaroscuro), a technique that enhances the longevity of his subjects in the viewer's eye. By using plain earth tones and only deviating from this palette when absolutely necessary, Paulsen creates paintings that stand out for their emotional depth and visual impact.

As an artist, Paulsen aligns himself with the new realists, focusing on portraying the human experience in a new light. His art is meticulously crafted to tell a story in a single image, emphasizing the importance of subtlety and restraint. He follows a guiding principle from his early training: "Don't be too tough with your pencil when you draw. Not too much information when you catch the line. Do not underestimate your audience." Paulsen's work is designed to transcend the limitations of photography, creating a deeper, more enduring connection with his audience.
