The Megga America Communion Priest by Mark Gonzales (2006). Hands down the best of this series we have ever seen. Great colors, tons of detail work and all the classic hallmarks of Mark Gonzales' painting practice. Fully hand painted with classic Gonzales hand inscription and signature. Number 114/1000 in the series. If you've been looking for a really good example from this series. this is as good as it gets.Produced in 2006 in collaboration with Maharishi, a British clothing line. This entire series is hand painted and was a follow up to Gonzales' highly successful ceramic Priest figure from a few years earlier. This version is fully mechanized and the figure will actually blow bubbles as the arm moves and gives "communion". New in box. Only taken out to be photographed. Includes original bottle of bubble solution. See additional photos.
