About this blog:

Years ago, my sister and I went to see the Darjeeling Limited in theater. Afterwards, we were talking about the movie and about our love for creating art. We shared a similar problem: we put our art last to the business of our lives and thus hardly ever made time to create anything. My sister suggested that we make a commitment to create a piece of art every week. She jokingly said "Can we agree to that?" in reference to the line Owen Wilson used repeatedly in the movie.
Although I tried at first to stick to our commitment, I've lapsed into not making time to create. I'm hoping this blog will help me rededicate time to that purpose.

Water 5/15/12

I've become part of an arts group that has started up through my church and this month, we were challenged to interact with a symbol.  I had a hard time with this at first, but a symbol that I've always been drawn to that shows up a lot in scripture is water.  So here's my interpretation:


“Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” Genesis 1:2

“They will neither hunger not thirst, nor will the desert heat or the sun bet down on them.  He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water.” Isaiah 49:10

"Jesus answered, 'Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink the water I give them will never thirst.  Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.'" John 4:13-14

"let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water." Hebrews 10:22
