Dawn Waters Baker commented on the post, What I Didn't Hear in Silence 4 years, 2 months ago
I’m not sure this answers it either but I think it may have something to do with the fact that there aren’t many works of art from a Christian that remain (or linger) at the cross. I was just reading this morning in Job 16 (The Message) “…Your anger tears at me, your teeth rip me to shreds, your eyes burn holes in me – God my enemy!” How many…[Read more]

Dawn Waters Baker commented on the post, Friday Night at the Movies: Silence 4 years, 2 months ago
I loved the movie, book and Mako’s Silence and Beauty. I read Mako’s first then Endo then the movie. Not saying that’s the order you have to do it but it helped me a great deal.
Pete, I like the wording, “step” and maybe because I don’t believe that Rodriguez ever trampled on Christ. The word Trample means to tread on and crush. I think, in a…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing her! I just love her music. As a landscape painter I have to say she sings the landscape she is rooted in. It gets into the earth.

Josh Garrels Christmas album, “The Light Came Down” is just beautiful and haunting, “The old tales are true…”

I actually did a painting after looking at some of the landscape of Iceland called, “Far Green Country” it was my idea of the sky rolling back to reveal the sweet place of green. My idea of heaven (yes, inspired by Tolkein)[attachment file=40377]
. Instead of streets of gold what if they were the leaves of golden trees lining the path of the New City? 🙂

There in an incredible waterfall in Iceland named Skogafoss. It’s calling me everytime I look at it. I love the rich greens that this area creates. What I would see as the “Far Green Country” of heaven.
@pracades, I love sunsets and sunrises too. When the light bends and all is truth. 🙂

I think of Rockwell as I do NC Wyeth. They saw into something that was truly there and helped the rest of us to see it. I have such high respect for illustrators and have never thought of them as less than other artists. Thank you for helping me how the word “illustrator” doesn’t come close to defining what they do. Artists indeed!

Perhaps it’s because I am a visual artist but I truly believe there are just some things that words cannot truly articulate. I realize I’m on thin ice posting in the RR that is made up of mostly beautiful writers. I believe there are places that words go that images just cannot too. I thought I’d start a thread as just a response to this world,…[Read more]

Thank you Russ for showing us into some insight with this painting. Makoto Fujimura says we can actually see into works of art through: “Visual Exegisis.” I like that thought. And I like that you pointed out the mystery of the painting. The Artist doesn’t have to have all the answers and we are better for it.
I would like to see, someday, a…[Read more]
