Beautifully photographed, handsome men with great character in their faces, wonderful poses, it all hangs together, and in its own way, are works of art. I’m going to save these photographs.

Now, we chop them all up and do a Jackson Pollock.

Get back to me when you have comments from Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci and Rembrandt on what they think of this.

I see this as typical leftwing debasing of God and Christianity

with auto mechanics replacing God and Jesus.

Excellent! Tongue in cheek, but not in any kind of mean way. And very creative.

On the contrary.

These photos are beautiful metaphors, contrived by the artist to elevates these men, men typically thought of as lower class (due to the nature of their work) to their rightful place as dignified, beautiful human beings worthy of all human respect.

Bravo to the artist. Fantastic photos.

I agree. I’d like to see more of this type of photography.

I love it, especially the detail of the guy eating the Noodles in a Cup in that Last Supper one...

“their rightful place as dignified, beautiful human beings”

They are depicted as replacing God and Jesus.

You can be a grouch all you want, but do consider that Michelangelo's painting is on a ceiling, and Leonardo's on a wall, not in the pages of the Bible. Those paintings are marvelous, to be sure, and these are but whimsical odes to them, not denigrating them--and surely not God or Christ(ianity)--but rather honoring them by their attention.

Replacing God and Jesus with men is TYPICAL leftwing procedure.

Did you like Hollywood’s Last Temptation of Christ?
