Learning something new

By blogpastor, 1 March, 2010, 6 Comments

Took a break from blogging and tried oil painting. Never had proper art classes and was in the science stream but why should I let that deter me from learning. Don’t ridicule my first effort, a painting based on a photograph taken while climbing Mt Kinabalu. I had good help from Peter Tan, an old friend, who also took up painting just a few years ago. It was relaxing, and I hope it will be something I enjoy more and more.

mt kinabalu - first "draft"?

Lord why am I doing this?

    Keep at it! You are unlocking a part of you that reveals the creative nature of God.

    If you decide you want to try something difference I could teach you to make jewelry and do off-loom weaving.

    It would be my recreation.

  3. Reminds me of what they do in COOS and Bethel. They get painters on stage to paint during worship… So cool…;)

    I would one day like to mix prayer with painting and see what images turn up.

    Off loom weaving sounds intriguing, Maria.
