Today’s offering is a pen and ink offering filled in with one of my new favorite mediums Prismacolor Colored pencils. If you’re into colored pencils try a set.
Daily Drawing #289, Hopping Over the Wall
I have an obvious metaphor to go with today’s drawing. In life we are going to up against many walls. There are times when we must take our time to walk until we reach the end of the wall. I have lived through a couple of those, like cancer and debt reduction. There are other times when we must climb up over the wall and see what exists on the other side, like maybe a new life. One of these is the moment you decide to follow Jesus. It only takes a moment to bend the knee and climb over the wall. Think about it.
