A Gift

This is a drawing I did for some friends of mine. :) They got married almost a year ago, I wanted to draw them a picture of their hands from their wedding, but I liked this one from their engagement better than the one I got from the wedding. I got to give them this drawing of their hands last month when we were at the same event in Colorado. They both loved it. :)

I love how it turned out framed, but I caught some glares on the
glass, so here it is unframed without glares. :)

No Wicked Thing

A signature...

...that can change history.

This is one of my older drawings. I drew it in 2005 and wanted to send it to the President, but I never did because I didn't know if it would actually make it to him, so I held onto it for a couple years. Then I decided I wanted to keep the original, so I drew it again. :) I now have two copies of this drawing and would still like to send one to the President, but I don't know his address anymore. If anyone is personal friends of his, let me know and I'll send it with you next time you go over to his house for supper. :)

A Charge To Keep I Have
~Charles Wesley

A charge to keep I have,
A God to glorify,
A never-dying soul to save,
And fit it for the sky.

To serve the present age,
My calling to fulfill:
O may it all my powers engage
To do my Master’s will!

Arm me with jealous care,
As in Thy sight to live;
And O Thy servant, Lord, prepare
A strict account to give!

Help me to watch and pray,
And on Thyself rely,
Assured, if I my trust betray,
I shall for ever die.

Trust and Dependence

This was a fun drawing to do. :) I got to draw this one for a Christmas present. :) I love it when people ask me to draw a picture for them as a surprise for someone else. Makes me happy to be in on the surprise. :)

My friend said that she and her husband were sitting together holding hands and the baby reached up and took hold of Daddy's finger. Of course, they had to get a picture of it. :) I love it because it makes me think about how much a little baby trusts and depends on Mommy and Daddy. :)

That's what we need to do with God, reach up and grab His finger. :)


I decided to add the original picture for this one.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge
Him and He shall direct your paths.
Provers 3:5-6

A ball and an egg

This is my masterpiece from last night. It's always good to make sure you remember the basics. :)

James

This is James. :) I drew him a few months ago, but just recently gave the drawing to his parents, so now I can post it since they've seen it. :) I didn't want them to see my blog before I showed them the drawing.
I don't know why but, drawing James seemed harder than some of the other ones I've done. I think it may have been that the picture I drew it from didn't have as much depth and detail as some others. It turned out good and Jim and Meg loved it. :)
