Seems appropriate as we head into this new year to take some stock of the unforgettable year just ended. In the midst of all the loss and challenges of 2020, I want to intentionally testify to the good parts, the things that would not have happened if the world had not been upended by a novel coronavirus.
Thus, the Silver Linings Sketchbook.
In this instance, the sketches are written musings. So far, I’ve got twelve -- no, I just recounted -- fourteen items about which to write. As I go on, more may come to mind. Each of them will have some visual illustration.
Look for a new posting every few days.
I just think it’s important to acknowledge the good, the redemptive, in this time.
“The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5
This abstract, “Tangled Up in Blue”, expresses the idea of the Silver Linings Sketchbook well—see the luminous light up at the top spilling over the black? It’s a complex painting…it’s been a complex time.
