What Is God Trying to Teach You Through Your Art?

We were created by The Creator to create. How lucky are we? What lessons are you learning through the artwork that you create? Is it something about the subject matter ...or a lesson through the actual process of creating the artwork? I think lots of subject matters can be used to connect to God and glorify His works - not just *obviously* religious in theme.

Original artwork created by Amy Heyse.

Supplies:

Canvas, Board, or thick paper of your size choice (I used an 8x10” Artist’s Loft Canvas from Michael’s) https://amzn.to/3YenRyO (Artist’s Loft)
Dick Blick and Master’s Touch (Hobby Lobby) are also great canvas options https://www.dickblick.com/products/blick-studio-cotton-canvas/?clickTracking=true&wmcp=pla&wmcid=items&wmckw=07135-2003
Acrylic Paint (I used Lamp Black, Titanium White, Metallic Bronze, Metallic Silver, and Violet Artist’s Loft Paints) https://amzn.to/456XvAN
(Artist’s Loft, Master’s Touch, Dick Blick and Liquitex are all great cost-effective brands. Brands like Craft Smart and DecoArt can be too thin depending on the color)
If you want a non-permanent water soluble option for little kids, I highly recommend gouache or tempera paints. My kids love these gouache sets: https://amzn.to/43Q99Pq
Paint brushes (One big and one small, though a medium sized option could be nice too) https://amzn.to/3qar7ys
Water
Paper Towels
Palette (or paper plates) https://amzn.to/3O6ozds
Apron or a Shirt that you wouldn’t mind getting messy
Chalk or a Pencil
Optional: Hair Dryer

Once acrylic paint dries, it is permanent. If you get paint on your clothes, try to wash it out as soon as possible. I like to use Murphy’s Oil (Pine Sol, nail polish remover, or isopropyl alcohol work too) and the abrasive part of a sponge to scrub paint out of clothing. If it has dried, soak it in a little bit of one of the solutions listed above for at least 10 minutes before scrubbing off the hardened paint.
