eyes reMADe for WONDER

Today I painted a small mural in the bookstore of Boise Vineyard. Last year I had painted a slightly larger one with a Dead Sea Scroll & Pottery Jar (see post titled "Word UP" dated February 26, 2009). Today, I got to paint some crazy Johnny Depp Mad Hatter eyes! This was the "mad" brain child of the Pastor who oversees the bookstore & the small group ministry at Boise Vineyard. He spoke this theme in his life sermon recently when he was ordained. It's a call to us all to truly SEE...to see beyond outer appearances, to see beyond the surface, to see past our prejudice & preconceived viewpoints, to see beyond our limited circumstances...in order to see through to the heart and the wonder of life. I had a lot of fun painting this one.
