illustration friday (immovable)


This week's IF topic did not immediately inspire me, and I had to chew on it for quite a while. Actually, that's been true of most of the IF topics since I joined in June. I guess that's what makes it a challenge.

  2. Lovely! The perspective and color ensures that this anchor doesn't weigh down :)

  3. How appropriate Debbie, as just a couple of weeks ago, I drove over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel. It is a 17.6 mile engineering wonder that takes one across and under that span of the Atlantic Ocean. Stopping about at the half-way point and gazing over the waves, I thought of the cresting waves and tried to imagine what a stormy sea would look like. And yet, Jesus was able to calm raging waves. He is my anchor in this challenging time of my life. Thank you for posting this!

  10. Hi Debbie, this is a really great blog! I saw your name "Dosanko" on Evelyn's blog and had to stop by. I was in Sapporo for 3 years and I LOVED it! I still go visit my jr high and high school friends every once in awhile. It must be wonderful to have grown up there!

    I like how your etegami has both the beautiful japanese art and the lovely english words :D
