Here is a sketch I was able to do in 15 minutes. I am encouraged that my time is getting down! After I gave the sketch to this gentleman who lives in Russia, he asked if I would do a sketch of he and his fiancee. Of course, I replied. Now I have a new assignment and no time pressure. It is so encouraging to me to see how God leads one thing into the next as I am faithful to do what He puts before be each day.
My second sketch is of a woman I was seeing who was a part of a number of new friends hanging out for the evening. The window and flowers came to the sketch because of a funny story that unfolded during the course of the conversation. I decided to draw the whole figure, so I think that was good practice. Art is a way of re-presenting an idea, beauty, a person, God's handiwork, and even a funny story. This leads me to my thought for today.
My thought for today: God has called us, not only to represent Christ, but to actually re-present Christ as living in and through us. The world does not want to see another religion about a religious hero, it wants to see Jesus in us. -Francis Frangipane
