The Chosen Cartoon: Follow me, Alan!

I finally drew a cartoon again. Many of you are probably familiar with the TV series about the life of Jesus and his followers, The Chosen. Especially in the U.S., there are quite a few fans who regularly post memes related to the series on their own Facebook page. One of the best-known and best of them is Alan Schneider. He’s been trying in vain for a long time to get Jonathan Roumie, the actor who plays Jesus, to follow him on Instagram. This topic alone is the subject of many memes.

The animated series The Chosen Adventures has been around for a while now, but unfortunately it’s not yet available in German here in Germany. Fortunately, a few episodes have been posted on ►YouTube so far. The Jesus in my cartoon is inspired by Jonathan Roumie’s cartoon version.

How do you like my cartoon?

Fineliner line art with white and gold

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.):

New Fineliner drawing: Come to Rest

Komm zur Ruhe (Krippe) (Original)

I have added my latest fineliner picture to my shop. With this picture I tried something new. I drew on a dark drawing board with my fineliners and highlighted individual areas with a white colored pencil. Then I set accents with a golden edding.

The manger of Jesus from the stable in Bethlehem inspired me in the picture. We can come to rest with Jesus, even when everything around us is raging, chaos is spreading and challenges are getting out of hand. This peace is possible because Jesus laid down his life.

You can buy the picture here, the video on the left gives a better feel for the picture.
Of course, art prints, posters and other reproductions are also possible on request.
