Paint Party Friday

Happy Friday, dearest blog friends!  Here is an ATC from my Filipina in Terno series...


and an illustration from my prayer journal...


This verse from Psalm 139 is one of my favorites!  Everyone of us is fearfully, wonderfully made!  We don't have to look like the models in magazines.  We don't have to be as smart as the summa cum laudes.  We don't have to be perfect parents.  We don't have to be rich and famous.  We don't have to be the most talented artists.  We don't have to have high paying jobs.  God says we are wonderful, and so we are!  

I'm linking up to Paint Party Friday, Studio Sneak Peek, Random Journal Day, Heartprint Hallelujahs,  Faith-filled Friday, Art Journal Every Day and Spiritual Sundays.

    Your drawings/paintings inspire me. This one is especially lovely. Actually the picture above the 139 as well. My heart just expands when I look at this creativity combined with scripture!

    Oh Peggy, I just love your Biblical piece for today! How very, very true! How this message needs to get out to the poor people of this world who are so hung up on outward appearance, and spend all their time and money on the elusive search for "beauty" when if you have Jesus in your heart, His beauty is there and shines out from within!

    Beautiful ATC too! Your work is just awesome.

    Thanks for visiting me. Glad you like my new inks! Such fun!

    I love the work on the dress. There's something about the swirl of them that makes me think she's made full of creativity! So thankful God made me just like He desires me to be. I want to take care of His works.

    I like that I'm wonderfully made (but suspect a spring or bolt may be missing) but fearfully made? Gosh, I hope not. Wonderful journal page page, so lively and welcoming. Love the ATC as always. You have such great talent.
