Day 47

My husband said I'm going to get a reputation for drawing loose women - the last one was a biblical floozy, this one a more modern temptress... need to work on proportion a bit more! There are SO many warnings to young men/men regarding lust and sexual immorality. I'll need to start reading that to my son as a bedtime story so he doesn't get himself into some of the same messes a lot of men find themselves in today (and I believe this is applicable to women too). :)

Day 46

So, interesting stuff on pomegranates. They appear quite a lot in ancient Israel decorations and were often an adornment/decoration for religious rituals. I'd like to do some more research on it when I get a chance. There are some who have even been comparing the Hebrew words/definitions for pomegranate and apple and speculate that the forbidden fruit may have been the pomegranate. I was wondering why God told Moses to have pomegranates alternating with gold bells on the bottom of the high priest's garment. Hence, my selection for today and the beginning of a little research... Thought oil pastels would work well for the vibrant color and highlights.

Day 46 Readings: Exodus 39:1-40:38, Mark 1:1-28, Psalm 35:1-16, Proverbs 9:11-12

Exodus 39:24-26 - Pomegranates

Day 47 Readings: Leviticus 1:1-3:17, Mark 1:29-2:12, Psalm 35:17-28, Proverbs 9:13-18  Onto another new book - Leviticus!

Day 45

Here's another try at linoleum block carving prints. Didn't have any pink ink which is what I really would have liked for these almond blossoms...

Day 45 Readings: Exodus 37:1-38:31, Matthew 28:1-20, Psalm 34:11-22, Proverbs 9:9-10

Exodus 37:19-22 - Almond Blossoms

Day 46 Readings: Exodus 39:1-40:38, Mark 1:1-28, Psalm 35:1-16, Proverbs 9:11-12  First day of new book in the New Testament - Mark!

Day 44

I've been learning a lot here and there about some of the cultural/historical items as I've researched pictures to draw. This one is about a verse in Exodus where women spin goat hair to help make the Tent of Meeting (aka Tabernacle). I thought that'd be fun to do a drawing on that subject. But, as I looked into what kind of spinning wheel they might have used, I started to see older and older versions. At first I thought some of the wheels used in India (like Ghandi's famous picture) might be it. Then, I stumbled across some pics of nomadic women in the middle east spinning using spindle whorls (also other names, my little boy was messing with my notes on the desk and I can't find them right now). Basically, the hair/fur is held in one hand and twisted as a spindle is held in the other and turned, winding the thread/yarn into a spool. Figured that was as close as I'd probably get with my cursory investigation into how women spun back in Moses' day...

Day 44 Readings: Exodus 35:10-36:38, Matthew 27:32-66, Psalm 34:1-10, Proverbs 9:7-8

Tuesday, November 15, 2011

Day 43

So, here's a quick sketch of my rendition of the personification of Wisdom in Proverbs. And, no, she doesn't have a headache like my husband asked - she's supposed to be calling out. I just positioned the hands too high... :)

Day 43 Readings: Exodus 34:1-35:9, Matthew 27:15-31, Psalm 33:12-22, Proverbs 9:1-6

Thursday, November 10, 2011

Day 40

I kind of like this white charcoal on black paper... Did realize after finishing the drawing though, that the bread should be flat bread/unleavened bread. Oh well, artistic license! 

Day 40 Readings: Exodus 29:1-30:10, Matthew 26:14-46, Psalm 31:19-24, Proverbs 8:14-26

Tuesday, November 8, 2011

Day 39

Here's my plunge back into some painting with acrylics. My 3 almost 4 year old seemed to be able to identify the subject so that was good news to me! ;) However, his patience with me painting lasts about 30 minutes. Maybe I'll be able to paint for a longer time sometime soon. This subject came to mind when reading this verse as it's an especially familiar sight with winter coming on...

Day 39 Readings: Exodus 28:1-43, Matthew 25:31-26:13, Psalm 31:9-18, Proverbs 8:12-13

Days 31 thru 38

Okay, so life, construction in our house, and a tweaked back resulting in some heavy duty muscle relaxants have created a short hiatus from my art work. I've been able to keep up with one of my goals of reading, but the art hasn't worked a lot this past week. I have a couple of projects I've begun that I'm working on - a graphic novel type illustration of the plagues of Egypt and another collage/decoupage from a verse. I'd like to spend some more time on those so they won't be posted for a while. I've decided not to beat myself up trying to play catch up with each specific day. So, new art work will resume with tomorrow's (Day 39) reading. For those reading along, I'm posting each day below from 31 - 39 so you can follow along if you like. Until tomorrow! :)

So, for those of you reading along, I'm posting the readings for Day 29, 30 & 31. I'm working on a project that incorporates the story in Genesis of the plagues for all three days. Hopefully will be done tomorrow and will be able to post it all up.

Day 28

Okay, had to re-do something for today. I actually recorded myself singing "The Lord's My Shepherd" but couldn't figure out how to get that actual little program to upload here. So, guess it will remain on the computer. Instead, I played around a bit with my new chalk pastel pencils. They're fun and I like having more control over the detail (not that I had a lot of time to add much tonight) and mess!

Day 28 Readings: Exodus 5:22-7:25, Matthew 18:21- 19:12, Psalm 23:1-6, Proverbs 5:22-23

Friday, October 28, 2011

Day 27

Well, as I started sketching, what came out on paper was WAY different than the original picture I had in mind. The lady I was drawing didn't seem to fit the scene I was intending to draw. So, I created a new scene around her... So, here's white charcoal on black paper.

Day 27 Readings: Exodus 4:1-5:21, Matthew 18:1-20, Psalm 22:19-31, Proverbs 5:15-21

Wednesday, October 26, 2011

Day 26

I was working on mudding the sheet rock most of today. So, my son and I decided to draw on it with the Crayola markers (last time before it's primed). Was a quick draw day today - like most days until this construction is done...

Day 26 Readings: Exodus 2:11-3:22, Matthew 17:10-27, Psalm 22:1-18, Proverbs 5:7-14

Isaac's Artwork - notice the addition of eyes & mouths, that's new!

Day 27 Readings: Exodus 4:1-5:21, Matthew 18:1-20, Psalm 22:19-31, Proverbs 5:15-21  Tomorrow!

Tuesday, October 25, 2011

Day 25

So, this is not a drawing of a specific verse. Rather, a subject as we're at the end of the story of Joseph on today's readings. As I've been reading and looking things up, it appears there are some who think Imhotep of Egypt may have been Joseph - and others of course, who vehemently object to that theory. I decided to use some of the sculptures of Imhotep (1st Vizier/Prime Minister of Egypt) as a basis for my pencil sketch of Joseph tonight. In all of the sculptures, he has rather large ears... Interesting topic/mystery. How cool would it be though if they are one and the same and there is actually a physical representation of a bible character so we can see what he looked like?

Day 25 Readings: Genesis 50:1- Exodus 2:10, Matthew 16:13-17:9, Psalm 21:1-13, Proverbs 5:1-6


Genesis - Joseph, Vizier of Egypt

Day 26 Readings: Exodus 2:11-3:22, Matthew 17:10-27, Psalm 22:1-18, Proverbs 5:7-14  Here comes Moses!

Day 24

Little late on the post. Here's a quick charcoal sketch of Jacob's prediction/blessing for the tribe of Naphtali. My son got to draw with charcoal on the left over sheetrock from our remodel while I was doing this. It kept us both busy. :)

Day 24 Reading: Genesis 48:1-49:33, Matthew 15:29-16:12, Psalm 20:1-9, Proverbs 4:20-27

Genesis 49:21 - Naphtali , Doe Set Free

Day 25 Readings: Genesis 50:1- Exodus 2:10, Matthew 16:13-17:9, Psalm 21:1-13, Proverbs 5:1-6  Tomorrow, we enter the reading of a new book!

Sunday, October 23, 2011

Day 23

Okay, so who thinks the Bible doesn't have humor?! I can just picture Jesus' exasperation sometimes... and yes, here is my middle school teacher humor coming forth in this creation. I kept making myself chuckle - I'm easily amused... I especially liked the NLT translation: "Anything you eat passes through the stomach and then goes into the sewer. But the words you speak come from the heart - that's what defiles you..."

Day 23 Readings: Genesis 46:1-47:31, Matthew 15:1-28, Psalm 19:1-14, Proverbs 4:14-19


Matthew 15:17 - To the Sewer

Saturday, October 22, 2011

Day 22

So, made a little more time today and got to experiment with carving on a linoleum block and making block prints! Haven't done that since high school. My 3 year old was able to help a little too (alas, much to his disappointment, NOT with the carving). He's quite proficient at rolling on the ink and making a print - I think I may like his print the best of the five we did. I'll have to go get some more linoleum!

Day 22 Readings: Genesis 44:1-45:28, Matthew 14:13-36, Psalm 18:37-50, Proverbs 4:11-13

Friday, October 21, 2011

Day 21

Thought I'd try my skill with the mouse in some computer painting... Kind of fun to just veg out and work on contrasts. Interesting how I initially thought a physical wall to do when I read the verse - how many of my walls are nothing physical?

Day 21 Readings: Genesis 42:18-43:34, Matthew 13:47-14:12, Psalm 18:16-36, Proverbs 4:7-10

Psalm 18:29b - Scaling Any Wall

Thursday, October 20, 2011

Day 20

Another rainy day, so my 3 1/2 year old "helped" me build an ancient Egyptian grain silo. His participation ceased after he kept consuming our sugar cube building blocks! After finishing it, those of you who appreciate archaeological correctness will quickly see that this building is NOT correct. I should have built it taller, straight,  and narrower and it would have a smooth dome instead of a pyramid-esque top. The ancient silos had narrow stairs to a small window in the top and a small door at the very bottom from which to get the grain. Note: Elmer's glue can dissolve sugar cubes - plan accordingly when constructing! Oh yeah, this is regarding Joseph and the 7 years of plenty in Egypt followed by the 7 years of famine.

Day 20 Readings: Genesis 41:17-42:17, Matthew 13:24-46, Psalm 18:1-15, Proverbs 4:1-6



Genesis 41:47-57 - Egyptian Silo (in progress and finished)

Day 21 Readings: Genesis 42:18-43:34, Matthew 13:47-14:12, Psalm 18:16-36, Proverbs 4:7-10  More to come tomorrow!

Wednesday, October 19, 2011

Day 19

So tired today...had more grandiose ideas I wanted to attempt, but think it'd be best to just hit the sack. So, here's my quick sketch contribution for today just so I could get some practice in!

Day 19 Readings: Genesis 39:1-41:16, Matthew 12:46-13:23, Psalm 17:1-15, Proverbs 3:33-35

Tuesday, October 18, 2011

Day 18

I've actually never carved a pumpkin before. Right now they are plentiful, cheap, and my family loves roasted pumpkin seeds! So, here's a seasonal rendition of an Old Testament story... maybe we'll start a family tradition of carving a biblical theme on a pumpkin every Halloween season! :)

Sunday, October 16, 2011

Day 16

Same place as Day 15 post - just did them on same day. The below is a really rough sketch with some slate rocks we found by the river on a nice white rock on shore. Wonder if it'll still show after the winter and spring rains?

Day 14

So, here was my dabbling with oil pastels. Forgot how you blend them at first. May go back and add some more leaf shadows/details. It's late for tonight though. If you want really detailed work (at least me), this may not be the medium. View with eyes half closed from a distance... :)

Day 12

Hmmm...it was between a tax collector and a wine skin today. I opted for the latter as my son was fighting bedtime again. Interesting doing a little research on the customs and paraphernalia of the day when putting my ideas together. Below is the old wine skin spilling out the new wine.

Day 11

All right, I think I need to work on hands. Here's my attempt to draw Jacob's pudgy little newborn hand as it was grasping Esau's heel. I am not confident enough yet to post my hideous looking attempts at a baby's foot however! So, all we get here is Jacob's hand... :)

Day 9

So, we have a massive demo & remodel going on in the house. I thought I'd take advantage of it and use some cheap chalk pastels to do a drawing on our 100+ year old cedar interior walls that the sheet rock is going over. Won't someone remodeling 100 years from now get a shock when they peel off the sheet rock and see this! It also became a fun family art project tonight as my husband and son joined the fun of drawing on walls without getting into trouble! ;) Maybe I'll do something on the sheet rock before it gets primed...
