In spite of the fact that my mother was an artist, I have trouble with the simplest stick figure. When my oldest grandson was three, he asked me to draw a horse. When I showed it to him, I asked if it was okay. "Yes," he said, "But it's not a horse."
But... I was smart enough to marry an artist. In the days we held Vacation Bible Schools (up to 10 a summer), I would write my own material -- which meant we didn't have visuals. I would go to bed at night, leaving a list of what needed made, and wake up feeling like the Elves and the Shoemaker when I saw poster-sized visuals for my stories, verses, etc.
Last summer someone I loved was going through a hard trial. Part of encouraging someone is making them smile, so I called for the help of my handsome artist. All of these designs can be found on Pinterest, and you can find many, many more.
I apologize for the photo quality. I didn't intend to use them for blogging.
It's always encouraging to me to read and hear about couples serving together. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMaking someone else smile is the best part of serving, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteso cute!!! I think it turned out great. I am no artist, so this is really good!

ReplyDeleteGreat team work! My granddaughter illustrates for my kids stories because I can't draw either. lol. ;)
ReplyDelete"Give your hands to serve and your heart to love." Great quote.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful. I use to be good at art and was discouraged, so I lost most of my ability. There are so many good things an artist can do!
ReplyDeleteLovely, Pamela. I am not good with arts though but I'd appreciate a good work when I see it. This is good.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you
