This past weekend I had to opportunity to visit my native home land- Vermont. V to the izza. Lauren came with me and we all enjoyed the sights of a pristine Mountain Top Lake (AKA: Chittenden Dam). Whatever name you ascribe it, the beauty of the place remains constant. God's majesty was present in those Green mountains. That weekend, the Blondies truly did have more fun. Stay tuned for the next adventure: Salsa dancing in Philly!

The Face of Christ

Do you ever wonder how people come up with the idea of the face of Jesus Christ?
Some artists labor over His skin, eye and hair color.
High school art class: the project I took upon myself was creating "Come Unto Me"... A frontal view of Jesus with His hand reaching forward drawing you in.
From my own experience, artists portray more than Christ's skin, eye and hair color. It's when I paint or draw the figure that brings to my mind FORGIVENESS, LOVE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, PERFECTION... that I desire to portray the feeling people have had once they are forgiven, loved, set free and healed by Jesus. I can't ever walk with Jesus like the disciples in scripture did on the dusty roads. Nor can I look upon Him as they did. But in a way, I walk with Him now and everyday. The face of Christ I see in scripture- I see the work of His forgiveness, love, righteousness and perfection. I desire to portray a face of Christ that when people look upon it, they see His characteristics.
