Hello, friends. I haven't posted in a while but I wanted to share with you my newest comic, Paul: A Graphic Novel. It has been extensively researched and some of it was created while on research trip to Mamertine Prison in Rome, where Paul was prisoner. You can find the Kindle version at this link, www.amazon.com/dp/B07VCCK2Y6
Thank you!
Only one more strip left after this one.
This is a frame for an animated clip I drew. Made for entertainemnt only, non-profit purpose. T create the clip I drew the character using tools tools GIMP and Jump Paint softwares, animating with tools of Tupi 2d, a free software for animation, and edited it wit tools of Movavi software. Based on Japanese superhero tv series "Spectreman". Link for the animation:
The next few strips will be the final storyline, but this is also part of the finale in a way. This is a reference to the first LABS comic, kinda bringing it full circle.
The Blog post as I would like it to appear
At age 40, a VBS changed my life....
...at least, that’s what it feels like at the moment!
We were doing an ART CAMP VBS this year, and I got to volunteer on the worship team AND a pretty cool art station where I helped the kiddos create a 1 page comic of the day’s Bible story (please see my photos for examples... for some reason, the site isn’t letting me upload pics here).
Anyway, over and over, I kept hearing the kids say ‘I can’t draw a straight line’, ‘I can’t draw THAT...’, etc
so I was trying to create a simpler ‘model’ for the kids and instead of drawing a page in the style of the Bible Story videos I created, the second day I decided to tell the story using these odd ‘gumdrop’ characters... and
WOW.
It broke down a lot of walls REALLY quick, and was SUPER engaging for the kids!
It was an INCREDIBLE experience for me for a few reasons:
1. I’ve missed volunteering with the kids, Children’s Ministry is where I started, and now I’ve moved into the role of Campus Pastor -so I don’t get as much time with the kiddos
2. It gave me a fresh perspective on engaging kids through comics
3. It inspired a series of cartooning & comicking workshops/afterschool programs I might try soon.
4. It officially birthed the idea of ‘Gumdrop Gospel/Gumdrop Comics’.
#4 would be awesome if it weren’t for the fact that I can’t get them out of my head and have suddenly become obsessed with creating this Gumdrop Gospel project
I’m thankful, but geez! Gumdrops? Over the past week, I’ve been pumping out parables and delving into devotionals using these odd creations, and I seriously can’t wait to bring this to life!
(y’know, with all the ‘spare time’ between family, ministry, and launching Word Weirdos -more on that soon)
As odd as these ideas are, and as many excuses I could make *not* to do anything with these gumdrops, I made a promise this year to FOLLOW HIM BY FOLLOWING THROUGH. And I do believe this is an odd blessing, but after seeing the way it engaged kids firsthand, I can’t wait to see the fruit God might produce through this!
*Plenty of things God called people to do seemed foolish to somebody... ;)
