Vor 8 Jahren habe ich zusammen mit einer Freundin der Autorin Anita Krenn aus Österreich ein Bilderbuch herausgebracht. Kurz gesagt: Der Osterhase trifft Jesus. Es sind noch wenige Exemplare übrig, die wir gerne dieses Jahr noch verkaufen wollen.
Hintergrundinfos Minz, der neuerwählte Osterhase muss dieses Jahr das ganze Geschäft alleine bewältigen. Irgendwie wird ihm das aber zu viel und reißt aus. Unterwegs trifft er auf einen Mann auf einer Parkbank mit dem er sich über die Bedeutung von Ostern unterhält.
Seit ein paar Tagen ist mein neuer Kunstnewsletter draußen. Es gibt einige Neuerungen, einige bewegende Feedbacks auf meine letzten Auftragsbilder… und vor allem eine Sache, die mich ziemlich herausgefordert hat. Kurz vor Weihnachten erhielt ich eine Abmahnung von einer Anwaltskanzlei. Wie sich Gott in der Sache verherrlicht hat, könnt ihr in dem neuen Newsletter nachlesen!
I am very pleased to be able to present another finished commissioned painting to you today. This prophetic painting was the customer's third picture and she was very enthusiastic each time.
I have added the following impression to the painting:
When I prayed for you, I saw a large open gate in a tower that belonged to a fortress or fortified city. Somehow it reminded me of oriental buildings, like from 1001 Nights. They were beautiful and richly decorated. Inside the fortress, it was bright, warm, safe and cozy. Outside it was dark and gloomy and felt threatening... But there was a strong call from Jesus to you: “Come out, out into the open, out of the city, out of the gate!” Jesus is calling you out to go with Him into the distance into the unknown. You felt uneasy, because you loved the place inside the fortress, the outside was so dark, uncertain and threatening!
But Jesus' call was clear and very strong. He is really calling you out. But He also assures you that He will go with you, that He will be with you. You are not alone! And who knows, maybe you will actually enjoy being out there with Him and relying on Him completely? Who knows? You'll only find out when you go out there!
“Behold, a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, 'Come up here, and I will show you what must happen after this. And immediately I was in the Spirit...” Revelation 4: 1 + 2
Eine Vorskizze in meinem Skizzenbuch
The recipient wrote me these enthusiastic words after receiving the painting:
Once again, I am totally touched and grateful. The picture is beautiful and it fits 100 percent again. I've been facing a big life decision for some time now, I hear God calling me, but it scares me at the same time.
Your picture therefore encourages me very much to take this step and I will do so, trusting in God.
A little addendum: The door in your picture reminds me a lot of the doors in my apartment. I don't have “normal doors”, but doors with a beautiful round arch. The walls are also brick. That's why I've always jokingly called my apartment a “princess” apartment.
It goes so well with your painting. But now it's time to leave the familiar behind me and take new steps.
On request, the picture is of course also available as an art print, poster, canvas or as a custom-made product such as a pillow or blanket.
