Brainy Quote
There is a brain, eye and heart disconnect in this world. If you judge someone negatively yet have never met them how do you know who they really are? Have you gone to a blog site and not stopped to take a really good look at the image or even better yet read the provided information about the project? Too busy? Why? Stop! Read! Look at the resulting work and you will see the heart and soul of someone. They are trying to become something more than they are today for tomorrow. They are giving of themselves so we can see the beauty hidden inside. I for one want to see that beauty and tell them I see it. If you don't visit enough sites in a day to fill the National Registry but take the time to read and tell a few that you see their beauty, that will soon fill the National Registry. Ephesians 4:2 "With all humility and gentleness, and with patience, support each other in love."
The New Jerusalem Bible. (1985). (Eph 4:2). New York: Doubleday.
In the last post the Thomas Kinkade image had been more or less started. With some 30 Copic colors being used it was just the beginning. After doing 5 or 6 of these images it was expected that the number of colors would only grow. First lets give the updated image as it is at the time it was scanned it in. Ready?
I would like to thank Maxine from kiwimeskreations for nominating me for an award. I would also like to thank Grace at th-ink-ingofyou for her gracious box of blog candy. You can see her card and what the box contained at my DW's blog here.
Next time I will hopefully be done with the image, maybe Thursday or Friday. I am ready. Until then remember LOVE THE DETAILS.
Oh my goodness - this is becoming a masterpiece!

What amazing work! Can't wait to see the finished product!
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely post with some good thoughts. Yes, if we take the time to surf to a blog, it is good to 'get to know the person' through reading about their profile, and reading 'between the lines' of the day's post. There's so many lovely bloggers, and I've met a lot of wonderful & talented people with this blog hobby. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Still looking forward to seeing the finished TK work. I bet your eyes get so tired after a coloring session. It's looking really great though. TFS (and I'm not Irish but I have friends who are. They seem to appreciate a card celebrating their special day.)
ReplyDeleteIt's coming along beautifully! Keep at it and you'll love the results!
ReplyDeletewow! I love what you said in the opening of your post! Earlier this week a few of us were chatting about this very thing....taking easy ways out instead of stopping, and commenting or when face to face, not texting but looking at those around us and how it seems to be connected. Thanks for your well written opening!
ReplyDeleteYour image is GORGEOUS! I look forward to viewing your next post!
Love the Masterpiece! its looking amazing!! Love the beautiful blend of colours you achieved... I see another Thomas in the art world. I buy his desk Diary every year, it is next to me as I write this. I have dozens of his jig-saws too and love the way he uses Light.
