Reading 1The good shepherd
Reading 2Calming the storm
Reading 3The road to Emmaus

Three of the most-illustrated scenes in Christian art, drawn as flat pictures rather than paintings: the shepherd with the lamb, the calming of the storm, the road to Emmaus. These nine cover all three in three styles. Christian imagery may show figures, and these do — as shape and silhouette, not as portraiture.

Frequently asked questions

What size do these print at?
Each illustration is drawn at standard A3 wall-art proportions with an even margin, so it prints clean at A3 or scales to A4.
Can I get a different scene, like the resurrection?
Yes — the direction field takes any scene, and the same three styles render it.
What's the difference between the three styles?
Each style treats the same three scenes in a distinct register — a flat cut-paper shape, a soft painterly silhouette, and a bold graphic line.
Is this a portrait or a likeness?
No — these are drawn as shape and silhouette in a flat illustrated register, not as a realistic portrait or likeness.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
