Daily Drawing #304, Candy Dreaming

| Whitt’s End Art

When I was but a wee lad up to my teen age years Halloween was was one of my favorite holidays. All day long sitting in school I would be candy dreaming, anxiously awaiting when my friends and I would go out trick or treating. While over the years Halloween became a holiday my family and I no longer celebrated because of our faith I still think back to those times. While as Christians we don’t partake of the holiday we can create a fall fun day where we get together and celebrate the fall season and God wonderful creation.

Daily Drawing #303, Let’s Keep In Touch

Back in the day if you wanted stay in touch with someone it meant either getting in your car and driving there or calling them on your rotary phone. What is a rotary phone well that is for another time. Today if you want to stay in touch with someone you have a variety of options which include but is not limited to Skype, Facetime and a lot of other options which means there is not excuse for not staying in touch with the ones you love.

While staying in touch in this world has changed staying in touch with God has not changed over the millennia. Prayer and reading God’s word and listening for God’s still quiet voice is the way to stay in touch with God. What, you’re not doing those things. Well you’ve missed out on a lot of time talking to the one who loves you the most.

Daily Drawing #302, Time Flies By

I remember when I was a child and even a young adult being sixty seemed so far off. Now that I’ve reached that milestone today life seems so much shorter ahead. This leads me to be more determined to live the rest of my life in service to God and also to help others as much as possible.

Daily Drawing #300, Oh, The Things You See These Days

Oh the things you see these days. Just when you think you’ve seen it all something comes along and surprises you. I guess that is what life is all about. The old adage, “There is nothing new under the sun,” is not true because each dawn brings a new day. A new day with opportunities to share God’s love with each new person you come in contact with in your travels. So look arounf and find the new things which come your way.

Daily Drawing #298, The Small Things We Do For Others

| Whitt’s End Art


I don’t usually do this but i decided to make today’s drawing a collaborative effort. In my day to day I work with high school age children one of which as you can see is a Charlie Brown fan. I thought I would draw the child a cartoon character of my own. The student then took my drawing and turned it into a pseudo Charlie Brown painting. In life there are some things which make you smile. For me it the little things I do for others, not to get any recognition or accolades but because it is part of my heritage as a Christian. I think if we all did the little things for others the world would start to be a better place/

Daily Drawing  #297, Drawing Your Self Portrait

| Whitt’s End Art

I have posted before how much I like drawing portraits. In fact on my other blog Tim the Artist I am doing a long term 100 Portrait Challenge. I think life is like drawing a portrait. Each day we add a line to our portrait until the drawing is finished on the day we are called home. My question to you is what kind of portrait are your drawing? One with the soft colors of service or one with harsh lines of a self-centered life.

Daily Drawing #296, A Warm and Fuzzy Feeling

| Whitt’s End Art

I know we all think the Christian walk is meant to be full of warm and fuzzy moments. After all the Bible does say in Matthew 11:28-30, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” However we all know the truth is the exact opposite. The Christian life at times is a rough road which is difficult to travel and without a faith based on and rooted in Jesus the road can seem unassailable at times.
