#037 | 365-Days of Color: Wolf Progress

Added more layers of colored pencil to the fur. I’m realizing fur requires linear strokes, not circular ones like I’m use to doing. I’m so tempted to color it all in instead of add tons and tons of lines. It’s not easy!

I found another verse helping me to better understand the Holy Spirit. It’s amazing to know that the Holy Spirit will intercede when we don’t even know what we need. When we feel weak we can boldly ask Mr. Holy Spirit (our heavenly wifi from the Lord) to give us what we need even when we have no idea what that is!

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
— Romans 8:26-27

Daily Creative Quiet Time

Here I go! All through 2022 I’ll be sharing my daily creative quiet time routine. I’ll shoot for 10-minutes a day (at least) progressing through a Commission, or an Online Animal Art Masterclass tutorial, or a Youtube tutorial, or artwork for Collectors.

For me the creative process involves more than just colorful paint, it’s an act of praise and worship. I chose the phrase “Confidence in the Lord” as my art/life focus for the year. I plan to pull colorful inspiration from bible verses, the valuable lessons of life, and the vibrant paint I get my hands on! Now lets paint.
