When it was stolen, the painting “Prince of Peace” was en route to an exhibition; for such a young artist, the colorful and exact skills were impressive.

A few years later, Akiane got it back, but sawdust had gotten on it during shipping, which she carefully wiped off.

Despite their greatest efforts to share Akiane’s spiritually-inspired portrait with the world, the family’s plans to display it were foiled by a clerical blunder.

After losing a protracted legal battle to reclaim the painting—which was then being kept in a dark stairwell—Akiane sold “Prince of Peace” to a private collector and shifted his focus to creating other works that would go on to win international appreciation.

With the help of her skills, Akiane was able to lift her family out of poverty, and she clung to the dream that one day she would meet her “Prince of Peace.”

She visited more than 30 nations during this time, where she taught locals how to paint and spread the gospel of peace and spirituality to various groups of people. In order to keep “Prince of Peace” fresh in people’s thoughts, she sold more than 100,000 prints.

2019 saw the occurrence of a miracle.

According to rumors, “Prince of Peace”‘s $850,000 purchasers are “one of the world’s most distinguished and esteemed families.”

The newly established family “sees itself as the stewards for the original.” They consider it their duty to preserve this masterpiece for future generations so that its message might continue to inspire millions of people.

Nearly twenty years later, Akiane carefully opened the package containing her beloved “Prince of Peace,” wiped her eyes, and knelt down. In a recent interview with CBS, Akiane was asked about her favorite piece of work and responded, “It was amazing to me.” After so many years, “to be able to see this into the light once more.”

“It’s still surreal to me,” she continued. I’m not lying…Love is incredibly potent. It will consistently arrive on schedule for those who require it most.

The Belóved Gallery in Marble Falls, Texas is now hosting the exhibition “Akiane: The Early Years,” which includes the well-known artwork “Prince of Peace.”

Even if one does not share Akiane Kramarik’s Christian religion, it is impossible to deny her immense talent. Which, if any, of her works do you find most appealing?
