"The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in the land of deep darkness, on them a light has shone." Isaiah 9:2
"...for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord." Ephesians 5:8
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.

Content 11/22/11
"Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:11-13

Peace Which Transcends Understanding 11/8/11
Sometimes I find myself lacking motivation or inspiration to create. Drawing is like exercise in that way: sometimes just getting started is the hardest part. But, when I just start drawing, then the inspiration follows. I feel refreshed. For me, this is worship.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Unchained 10/25/11
"I have been ungrateful,
I've been unwise.
Restless from the cradle,
Now I realize,
It's so hard to see the rainbow,
Through glasses dark as these.
Maybe I'll be able,
From now on, on my knees.
Oh, I am weak.
Oh, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained."
I've been unwise.
Restless from the cradle,
Now I realize,

From now on, on my knees.
Oh, I am weak.
Oh, I know I am vain.
Take this weight from me,
Let my spirit be unchained."
"Unchained" by Johnny Cash
