EThis is another redo drawing from last year. I used soft pastels to add more color to the drawing. I enjoyed doing this one. A sad little doll who travels the world but never gets to enjoy the benefits. It reminds me of a Christian who lives their life never knowing the joy of serving God because all they do is sit in their pew or look out a window but never step out in service. Don’t be that Christian. Get up and get out.
I love to repurpose old book pages and use them to create art. Today’s offering is another in my series of fashion art pieces. I have added some wording to the page. Something new I’m trying. The piece started out as a pen drawing highlighted with soft pastel.
Most of us live our lives with a little stardust in our eyes dreaming of what may come. Thinking of the people we can become or of the money we can make. There is nothing wrong with a few dreams in life as long as we remain focused on what is important. Zacchaeus was man who had a certain vision for his life until on day he met a man named Jesus who changed his life forever. The same is true of us. When you enter into a relationship with Jesus your life changes. The stardust drops from your eyes and you see things as they truly are.
Yes I know it is not Easter yet but I felt like I needed to draw this picture. This little girl loves her chocolate. In fact she is wearing some on her face. This is a pen drawing highlighted in color pencil. The little girl like many of us is over indulging in the good stuff. The problem is if you eat too much chocolate it will give you a stomach ache. Life in general is like the chocolate that is why God warns us not be gluttons or over indulge ourselves because in the end we will find ourselves sick.
As a child i loved to go out and play in the rain. There is just something about being cleansed and refreshed by the water as it cascades over you. Dancin’ in the rain is a reminder to me what it was like when I gave my life to Jesus as His forgiveness washed over me reminding me how much it feels to be truly loved.
Often there are many wonders right behind the curtain. The problem is we fail to move the curtain back to see what awaits us there. Don’t waste your life, put your trust in God and pull back the curtain.
Once again I am offering up one of flower drawings on an old book page. i love these pictures because each one is unique and never turns out like I planned. Hey that is kind of like us and our lives. We are all born unique and and for the most part our lives do not turn out the way we want. Still like flowers we plant our feet in the firm soil of the Lord’s providence and continue to grown and thrive.
