Art Noveau Spoonflower Contest




I didn't have much time to work on this but I wanted to give it a shot so I slapped this sort of sketchy image into the latest Spoonflower contest which is an Art Noveau inspired design with a restricted color palette. A long time ago I took some photos of my beautiful friend Kelly, I wish I could find the originals, but I used a photoshopped version of it as a basis for this design. Kelly recently gave birth to her fifth child (at home, unassisted by anyone other than her husband.. amazing!) and has always been one of the most creative people I know. Here's to you Kelly! If you want to vote in the contest click here. There are some really amazing designs to look at.

Justified








A Song I wrote for church


Justified


Enter in to the courts of the King

Come in boldly and draw near the throne

Trade your mourning in for a garment of praise

The accuser has been overthrown


I have come to adore

I am walking through the veil of your chamber Lord

Through the blood of the one

Who gave Himself for me I stand before You clean


I am safe in the shadow of His wings

In His love every fear is released

Therefore now there is no condemnation for His own

In His suffering He purchased my peace


Through his blood I am now reconciled

For I cling to the victory of Christ

If the enemies of God were reconciled through His death

How much more will we be saved through His life


You are the Lamb slain before all time

You're the broken Bread, the poured out Wine

I stand before You justified

Though I was dead in sin, I have been made alive
