1001 Drawings #311,  Peeking Around the Corner

I have enjoyed doing the year long drawing challenge so much so that I’ve decided already to continue on past this year. The new title is the 1001 Drawing Challenge. The current challenge will go forth unti the end of the year after that the new challenge will pick up with Drawing #366. The new challenge will not be a daily challenge but one of when I post the drawings. This is because I will also be doing a 52 Finished Art Work Challenge. 

Daily Drawing #307, Catch A Falling Star

When I was young you could find me on many nights looking up into the sky looking for falling stars. I believed in the old adage when you wish upon a falling star your wishes would come true. Since many of those wishes didn’t come true I guess I can give some of them away.

Like Charlie Brown I wished the girl who lived across the street from me would see me as her boyfriend. I wished to be one of the cool people at school. I wished to be good at something. These were only many of the wishes which went unanswered.

I know now many years later life is not about wishing on stars but putting your faith and trust in Jesus. He is the one who has the wisdom to guide me through life in order to avoid many of the pitfall which normally strike.

Daily Drawing #239, Getting the World to Sing

This cartoon entitled, “Working on the Cat’s Meow,” is a homage to the old Tom and Jerry cartoons where Jerry is always getting the best of Tom. Here the mouse is teaching the cat to meow in tune. We are supposed to be the mouse. The ones who as the old Coke commercial tells “teaches the world to sing in perfect harmony.” The key is living a life which is in perfect harmony with the Lord. People will sing along with whatever we are doing not what we’re preaching. So a life out of tune will create others who are also not singing the right notes.
