Supplies For a simple design—fine tip markers and paper. To increase the creativity quotient, add a canvas (any size) and paint, watercolour or oil, in colours of your choice. Begin by considering 1 Peter 2:9. What does this verse mean to you? You can artistically represent this verse in many ways. The artwork out - lined here includes buildings to represent our nation, the church at the centre to represent us as His chosen people and the shadows show how we are called out of the darkness and into the light. Directions 1. Divide your canvas in half horizontally to create your buildings on the upper half and the shadows on the lower half. 2. Paint the background first, making sure that the centre is the brightest and slowly darken the background as you paint closer to the edges. 3. When creating the buildings use brighter colours. Use darker colours for the shadows but be careful not to make those colours too dark as you want your marker to be visible when you add it later. 4. Let your paint dry. 5. Choose a marker to outline your buildings and shadows. Make sure that your shadows angle outward to give a sense of light radiating from the centre of your artwork. 6. Inside the building shadows, add words that reflect how God sees you. They can be words you find in the Bible or that represent who God has called you to be. 7. Add details in the buildings—windows, shading or line patterns. 8. Include the Scripture verse, in full or in part, wherever you feel it suits your work best. Artwork Play List When creating your art, consider listening to some music that highlights how God sees you. Here’s a suggested list, all available on YouTube. Who Am I?
