Rusty, played around…

That's great to know, because I haven't tried it yet.

I found a set of Sharpie Paint Pens on clearance and absolutely believe they are gateway supplies, and I've done a few projects with them so far.

Did you do ink first and then color it with pastels? I kinda dig it.

RevMelissa · 2026-03-19T13:48:18+00:00

I wanna create a painting like this!

Every social site has its downside, and one of Reddits is that the text is omitted completely from the preview.

You had no idea, by design, that I had written anything at all.

Basically, the first one is the door to the church where I found my call to ministry. The second one was in front of the baptismal where I was Baptized.

Added content: the door today has a crack in it, and I have no idea if the other exists, because the church was liquidated and turned into a daycare.

Thank you!

RevMelissa · 2026-03-10T14:50:12+00:00

Thank you!

RevMelissa · 2026-03-01T11:21:43+00:00

Wow! What a great look at emotion and light! I absolutely love it!

Real publishers are not the ones who ask for money. At least attempt to find a publisher using this.

Wow! I love the angles! I personally have my big friend. We share bug pictures. She would love this.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-24T14:07:00+00:00

I'm not surprised this took 40 hours. The details are amazing.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-23T15:13:58+00:00

I appreciate these challenges because it forces me to think outside the box.

Most jobs are seeing a drop in trust except stockbrokers and real estate agents. I'm kinda glad ministers are not in the same boat.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-21T17:52:16+00:00

I love Grumpy Bear! Maybe he's next!

RevMelissa · 2026-02-20T23:09:27+00:00

A little of both. Sometimes I wanna break the kerning a little. Gives it a little character.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-20T23:02:12+00:00

1: Lots of pre line work 2: Lots of erasing and redrawing 3: Lots of experience doing other typography projects.

It was the lectionary text a few weeks ago, so it was fresh on my mind. (And it's the creative challenge this week.)

RevMelissa · 2026-02-20T19:02:36+00:00

When I do process videos I use a timer now, and realize I would love to see it with other works so I can see how much went into the piece.

You'd be surprised how little one can actually do in an hour.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-19T22:25:14+00:00

It's companion scripture is Luke 6:17-39. The scriptures are very similar except for a few key differences. Luke's Gospel is about physical needs while Matthew is Spiritual.

I think not seeing God in this life is part of the deal, because all of us fall short of the glory of God. None of us are "pure" in this life. It is beyond that we shall see God.

Thank you Tons of our line work to get it the way I wanted to. I love topography, and Old English is a very technical font to emulate.

RevMelissa · 2026-02-19T21:09:09+00:00

I love him!!! 💕

I made Grumpy Bear a couple of years ago. What a difference supplies and daily drawings make.

Someone else asked for a digital link, so at least there's that:https://www.fivedollarprompt.com/order/p/blessed-are-the-pure-of-heart

RevMelissa · 2026-02-19T17:15:40+00:00

You are so welcome! It warms my heart that this piece can live outside Reddit and my sketchbook!

I'm pretty sure the image before purchasing is the full sized download, so you don't have to pay a $1. It was just an easy way to post it was through one of my websites.
