Artist Joe Castillo has announced that he will draw the face of Christ and scenes from the Passion in sand art presentations during the new "Name That Book Show" at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Aug. 10-12.

Millions of copies of images Castillo has drawn-particularly the face of Christ-have been sold worldwide. A graduate of the Asbury Seminary, Castillo is also a pastor and conference speaker.

Castillo's artwork has been compiled in The Face of Christ (William & Warren Press), which will be featured at the "Name That Book Show," an event by Larry and Val May, who own the Spring Book Show. The new show is the result of the Mays buying the former "Onboard Show," held traditionally in Nashville and being moved to Atlanta.
