Art - Salvation

SALVATION
 
 
I created this piece to symbolize the great sacrifice made for our salvation. Form being honored with palm leaves when He entered the city to the wearing of a thorny crown at the Crucifixion with the Holy Spirit always present as Jesus went though all this for us. Leaving the spikes that nailed him to the cross behind & ascending into Heaven like a dove to prepare our place.
What a privilege to be called a child of God. 
 
I used old, rusted & salvaged pieces, as our broken lives being transformed into something acceptable in His eyes.
 
 
The frame was form Goodwill, wire salvaged, the Cross was from a pallet. I painted on burlap for the background & my husband sharpened the spikes to nail into the frame.

This property was classified as a natural habitat, the owners put bird houses, baths, feeders and other artifacts to create the habitat. There is a manmade stream & pond with walk ways, the rest was left natural.

Blueberry Smoothie and Poem

This smoothie was so delicious I had to share the recipe. My daughter started making smoothies in all flavors and this was the best so far. Here follows the recipe in her own words.



Ingredients

1 Cup of Frozen blueberries
1 Cup of Vanilla yogurt or blueberry yogurt
3/4 Cup milk
2 Tablespoons of white sugar
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract


okay; so the tools you will need are...
a blender
a tablespoon
a teaspoon
a measuring cup


Now since you have your ingredients and your tools you can start mixing everything into the blender and I blend for about 25 seconds on the setting, ice crush.

Once you have that done, pour into a glass and drink your tasty treat. 
Enjoy!

 Small, purple, sour, and round
and it is oh so yummy
It tastes just perfect in a pie
the crust so sweet and crumby

In a smoothie even better
when you pour in it some milk
then you crush it and you mush it 
until it has the texture of silk

Enjoy!!!! 

Snowy Owl

SNOWY OWL
 
 
My daughter wanted a virtual pet & the only way I would agree to this was for her to write a poem & draw a picture about the owl. This is her poem:
 
 
IT'S SNOWING OUTSIDE BUT OH DOES HE FLY
HE SOARS, HE DIVES, HE TOUCHES THE SKY
HE CATCHES A MOUSE AND FLIES TO HIS NEST
OH AREN'T SNOWY OWLS THE VERY BEST
HIS FEATHERS GLOW WHITE LIKE AN ANGELS WINGS
THEY SHINE BETTER THAN 100 GOLDEN RINGS
