Illustration Friday: Wise


Illustration Friday: Wise
Center = Repousse (pressed metal)
Mat= Acrylic Paint
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a WISE man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."
Matthew 7:24-27
Here is my interpretation of "Wise". The center of the picture is pressed metal with an india ink wash. I continued the design in color on mat board with acrylic paint.
