My House


It is so easy to be a secret service saint in the world today.  Followers of Christ are always under scrutiny, peer pressure and judgement.  The tendency may be to hide one's faith under a rock.  Joshua's message to the children of  Israel is very timely today- when he told them to choose who they were going to serve. Like Joshua, I declare "...but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”  Joshua 24:15b

Through all the criticism from the world, mistakes I make, EVERYTHING!  I choose to be unashamedly Christian.  I made this mixed media piece as inspired by Tracy.  She asked: "What is in your house?"  


My house is covered under God.  Inside there are many things, but especially LOVE,  Joy , Peace and Faith.
I used my travel mix media kit.  I would have loved to use acrylic paint.  Instead I used watercolor pencils, book pages, charcoal pencil, MS marker, gel pens, glitter pens, Sakura, Souffle, Micron and zig markers.

Wednesday

The LORD will provide


Many are feeling the effects of a struggling economy.   Having to stand at the gas pump and make the choice- gas? medications? or electricity?  Rather than be frustrated about limited finances, I choose to meditate on lovely things.  So Matthew 6:26 KJV lifts me up and focuses me on the provider-the LORD.  Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

 Watercolor pencils, book paper, zig markers, generals water soluble pencil.

I am thankful for God's love and provision.

Friday

Within arms reach


After making a layout for the September Virtual Scrapbook Pajama Party  we were supposed to make a card from the scraps.  Many of you know that I use a lot of scraps to begin with so my cards is not always made using the same scraps from the lo.  My pain increased so much (it's gonna rain) that I was having difficulty moving around the studio.  But I still wanted to make the card.  I decided to use whatever I could reach while sitting down.

I grabbed a 4x6 paper stack and made a simple birthday card for my cat loving friend.  I resorted to hand drawing and lettering for the inside.


So I didn't use scraps, but I was able to create in spite of the pain.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you come again soon.
