Guiness World Record: Art Hop

Presented by Arts Council of Greater Kalamazoo at Epic Center First Floor

The record holder for the "World's longest painting by an individual" and breaking the world record for the "World's largest professional oil painting by an individual" the Star of Bethlehem was created by Gurmej Singh. This 5.13 ft. x 47.9 ft. oil painting is a blue night scene panorama of color, light and space on a single piece of canvas. It's a story of the Star of Bethlehem. The highly detailed painting includes architecture of time, animals, caravans, deserts, landscapes, people of their time and their lifestyle. An amazing plethora of blue hues are used to capture the miracle in the sky.

The painting symbolized the hope for the world, and was created to celebrate equally for all. It took Artist Singh four months to create the whole painting.
