Hey! Nice 'meeting' ya on here! I saw your DA site. Good stuff! You can see mine at jcservant.deviantart.com . Keep up the great work. I will take some more time to look around this weekend. My job makes me work mega hours during the week :(
Hey Christina,
I just read your note from 9/4/07 and wanted to encourage you that God has got you covered. You are sealed in the name of Christ. Satan has only the power that He allows him to have. Just remamber that the joy of the Lord is our strength. I also wanted to say "WOW!" Your art is superb. I always wished that I could draw as good but that wasn't my gift. I write and create instead. I would love to have your atistry for a story I created. It si in post production to go into an audio drama this winter. gotta go cause I am at work. If you want to see where I work, just go to www.appletreeinn-yosemite.com.
God bless you and your family.......Howard
Wow, congratulations! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for that title. May the Good Lord bless you and your family and the people at Prince Adventures:) God is truly wonderful!
Sorry all that I haven't been on, been kinda busy, but I was chosen for Prince Adventures Christian comic, but still waiting on what I will be doing! :D
Yes, I am an artist, and I have tired my hand at comics, though I'm more into the gaming aspect for now. Currently I'm REALLY busy on other networks (my own), so posting pics and stuff hasn't happened. It will eventually (I hope), but I have three pages of networks (so u can imagine how long it takes to visit all!)
Well, I'm 47 and have been doing different kinds of art and have been led to do this, and I'm really excited. My problem is giving enough time for "me" to do it. But God is my best friend and I talk to him constantly and I encourage you not to look at this as work or something that God demands of you, but something that could surprise you had reward you!
As artists we tend to get lazy or afraid of our talent.Keep going!Have Fun!
I'm sorry to hear that you didn't make it to art school, but then again, I got rejected by two art schools and had given up on the idea until after I got married, at which point my wife encouraged me to apply again. So now, here I am at 34 years old, about to graduate with a Bachelor's in Comic Art. So who knows?
