Fineliner line art with white and gold

Näher zu Dir (Original)

I tried something new again. I made some line drawings with fineliners on dark drawing board. Then I added highlights with a white artist watercolor pencil and finally highlighted with a golden Edding Paint marker. I'm quite happy with the results! The scans don't really reflect the effects. Therefore, please take a look at the short videos, where this is more recognizable.

What do you think of the pictures and the approach? Do you have any other ideas or suggestions?

You can purchase the drawings in my shop as originals (on request also as art prints, posters, etc.):

The Heavenly Chariot

Der Himmlische Streitwagen

I was once again allowed to create an commission for a customer who was already very satisfied with a painting from me a year earlier.

I wrote this to the client:

When I prayed for you, I got a very unusual impression. For I saw you driving a chariot of the kind used in ancient times in chariot racing or in war. What was unusual about the scenery, however, was that the carriage was not pulled by a team of horses, but by a huge, flying dove. And the chariot flew through lofty heights and moved very quickly across the sky. It was quite fiery and passionate to the point.

I believe that the picture means that God is going to speed you up, that you are going much faster now. That God will enable you through the Holy Spirit (the dove) to move in the spiritual sphere and no longer let earthly entanglements hold you back.

But I also think that this is an invitation to you, which you can probably choose again and again.

Reach out and grasp the hand of God. Have fun, it will be exciting!

I received very enthusiastic feedback from the client:

And what can I say... the picture is so incredibly beautiful!! I love it and could watch it all the time, it brings me to tears! The dove is so beautiful, it looks so strong, full of power. And the golden fiery color...it looks so regal. I am impressed and grateful for the picture, painted just for me.

And the message behind it is fierce. I am so thankful to God that he wants me to look deeper into the spiritual world. This is something I wish very much. Being closer to him, being totally guided by the Holy Spirit, trusting him absolutely, more of his gifts... it fills me with gratitude and humility that God wants to give this to me.

Thank you Johannes, I think what you do is so strong and great. That you use your talents like this! I want to encourage you to keep doing this because you are a blessing to others!
