Faith Collage

So the homework this week at church was to create something to express our faith.  For those of you that have read some of my earlier posts and things on Facebook, you may remember that back in January of 2012 I started a little (and I do mean litte) art journal called Soul Musings that I consider my spiritual art journal...so the idea presented was not foreign to me. 

In fact, a couple weeks back when the pastor encouraged people to start small groups I thought about suggesting a faith art journal group but then I thought..."ummm no, probably people would be afraid to join such a group saying they are not great artists." Those of you that art journal know you do not need to be a great artist....that's not the purpose of an art journal. So I kept quiet and then in my inbox that same week was an email about a Journal Your Faith class...coincidence?  I'm still keeping quiet... it's an idea on the back burner. Life has been hectic of late and I'm not sure how much time I truly have to spare.

I did however create a Faith Collage to share. Yes we are suppose to bring them to church but I am out of town this coming weekend so I had a short time line to create it....I'm not sure I LOVE it...but it is, what it is...and I taped a description on the back so people could understand the images better and how I see them tied to faith.
