About Blake's Art

This page aims to share a selection of artwork Blake created

since being on death row in Florida.

All works were created with most basic materials, completely self-taught,

and are mainly dedicated to his friends, beloved ones

and most of all to his family and wife.

Here you find Blakes own words about him and his art:

'Job Suffering' by Blake 2013

"This is a graphite drawing I did of JOB, a prophet of God. Satan tried to tempt him. This is an image of him suffering."   Blake

15  I HAVE SEWED SACKCLOTH OVER MY SKIN AND

BURIED MY BROW IN DUST.

16  MY FACE IS RED WITH WEEPING,

DEEP SHADOWS RING MY EYES;

17  YET MY HANDS HAVE BEEN FREE OF VIOLENCE

          AND MY PRAYER IS PURE.         

                                                                   JOB 16, 15-17 (NIV)
