This world is not are home. If we do not reminder are selves of this we can easily become rooted in this world, caught up in the business of life. This is not bad but it will wear on us ,slowly drain the life from us, it will cage us in. The only place we can find true LIFE is if we are rooted in Christ.
Just me messing around with my camera, while experimenting with a new watercolor technic on a piece driftwood from Ocean Shores. “God Made Not Odd Made” is inspired by aboriginal art but with a little twist illustrating a Christian perspective on creation.
Hook…hook…hook its the HOOK .About a year ago I ask what sketch I should turn into a painting on my sketchbook page and a couple of you chose this one, so here he is Hook… Captain of the Jolly Roger
I entered this into a Pirates of the Caribbean art contest on YouTube hosted by Val’s Art Diary. Her video of the art enters should be up in a week you should go check it out and vote for your favorite one
Ok, I’m back and have more of a plan of what my blog is going to be this year, instead of me just posting random picture throughout the week my art is going to have a theme,a description, and a purpose. I will be making time lapses videos of the art in all its stages, so here is the first one of hopefully many to come.
Purity
Purity : What is purity? pure,white,clean, seeking Gods desires not are own, Free from the thoughts of this world. In art purity is usually , a white rose,a maiden, or an angle. In my painting I chose to use a white tuple because tuple petals have a wax like coating on them that stops stuff (sin) from muddying the color (purity) of the tuple.
Sin: The storm cloud in the painting is the sin trying to corrupt purity and cut is off from God notice that even though the sin is trying to hide God from us, God is always visible. The black cloth on the cross is my sin that Christ has taken away to give me purity.
Christ
Life: The red swirls at the bottom symbolize life. Life is not as dark as sin but the business of it can distract us from what matters most. God
Life
Here is the whole painting altogether hoped you liked it please comment and let me know.
