Sometimes a project comes along that will challenge every aspect of your abilities. This was it. This is the 3rd statue created, fully from scratch, probably a good 40 hours worth of work. Revisions, tweaks, and a ton of prayer. Christian art and depictions are not something I like to do. I don't feel confident that I have the talent to do it justice. I admire so many other artists out there who have far greater God-given talent, Nathan Greene, Lars and Kim Justinen, Harry Anderson, etc. I don't know where I fit in to it all, but I am honored and humbled to have had this opportunity to use again, my talents from the Lord, for the Lord.
Someday when we get to heaven, I hope the Lord shows us what He really had in mind for several images, and stories in the Bible. Just to see how close we were to the real thing.
