Jesus Riding Dinosaur: Meet the Artist Francesca Berrini
So you may recognize this image as an oft-used internet-wide wonder of delight:
Original Artwork of Francesca Berrini
(Spoiler: It's not misguided propaganda, but joyful, purposeful absurdity!)
About five years ago, I used that image in a post about Conservapedia because they had used it.
Over the weekend, I received a comment on that post that read as follows:

And if any of you are Redditors, I created a Today I Learned... post that could use some love as well.
So here's your credit Francesca. Doin' what I can to spread the word!
UPDATE: Been a little crazier than I thought. Right now, less than 12 hours after first posting, over 1600 people have seen her on my Something Awful post and almost 2000 have taken the time to up/down vote on Reddit (not counting direct clicks to her site with no vote/comment). And Francesca's mom posted in the comments here! Damn it, man, sometimes you just have an amazing day blogging!
[Note: None of those links come here - they all point to her site directly.]

Hi there!So this post is an attempt to make this right. And in doing so, I discovered her website above and OMG Amazing, Jesus Riding Dinosaur is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the brilliant talent and jaw-dropping hilarity. How much brilliant talent? Well, please go ahead and click this link and check the other categories and see for yourself, but I will drop one teaser to drive you on:
My name is Francesca Berrini and that image is actually my original art. You can see more of my Jesus and Friends images at my website: http://www.unusualcards.com/Jesus_and_Friends.html
I'm delighted that I could confuse everyone, but I'm a little disappointed that I've gotten no credit for my work.
Thanks,
Francesca Berrini
