One more poster for the Oz production. I made the top one with out the text for Illustration Friday topic Secret. I am thankful that God has revealed Himself to us in His word and the person of Jesus Christ. We don't have to go looking for some secret knowledge and its not just something a certain few can have. He took on flesh and lived before human eyes displaying His power, holiness, justice, mercy, love and grace. Created in Inkscape and Gimp

Practicing painting in GIMP. From a doodle of the classic monster Frankenstein started in Inkscape. It looks more like the Frank in Hotel Transylvania than Boris Karloff. It's kind of a mess but a lot of fun.
One of the issues addressed by the Frankenstein story is our mortality. Certainly, death doesn't make sense when you were made to live forever. We definitely desire immortality for ourselves and our loved ones. LIke the story of ole Frank here, man's attempts at immortality all fall short. Only Jesus is risen from the dead and can give eternal life to all who repent of sin (which brings death in the first place) surrender their lives to Him in faith. A cartoon version of a silverback gorilla. Painted in Mypaint. Beutiful and awe inspiring creatures. I wouldn't want to mess with one.
We see the beauty and creativity of our creator and also His fierce and awe inspiring nature. God is beautiful but don't mess with Him. C.S. Lewis said of Aslan, He's not a tame lion. He's not safe, but He is good. O-Boy, the little robot hero. A webcomic I am working on where the King of Light takes the form of a child to rescue his creations from the darkness of the evil Glooma.

Matthew 11:28 Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” This week's topic was Tribute. I have been working on Caricature and the book I am reading on it said for beginners like me that we have about 500 bad caricatures in us and we have to get them out by practicing. So I practiced using an old Entertainment Weekly and just tried to draw some celebs. So here are the best of the worst.
