Wow, I just heard this song at a Christmas cantata today.

Great coloring, turning from black and white to bright gold

I love that song! And I think you did a beautiful job of portraying this.

Hi. I don't know what to put here. Um... yeah.

AMAZING job, Mave!! I really love this piece...
and you are so right... before Christ our world wasn't easy...it still isn't easy..but having him to believe in makes it better.

Same with our own lives. Before our lives are completely darkness...with little hints of light, that eventually fade away... But when we ask Jesus to come in... the dark is instantly washed out by his glorious light... it's such a beautiful thing..

Happy Birthday, Lord Jesus!

Great piece, Mave...it looks amazing.

I pray that I'm an artist who'll rise above the road that is wide and filled with self love.

I hope you're happy - you made me cry!

It's beautiful. The face and the robes are excellently shaded, the transition from light to dark was handled marvelously (not just -boom- there's the divider between the two), and the text really sells the piece. There's nothing really wrong with the lamb, it just doesn't seem to have quite the detail of the rest of the piece. Just too light in comparison, as you said, it seems. But don't pick it apart - it really is an amazing piece, Mave.

Thank you for blessing us with another reminder of what we're really celebrating. Merry Christmas and God bless.

Hey I played a musical called welcome to our world, centered around this song, a few years back! Neat to see it back again, and with such great art!

Wow Mave, that's beautiful! I wish I could draw sheep XD J/k, but really, that's phenominal. Great message, too. It's like living in a black and white world without knowing Christ, missing so much but not even able to comprehend the difference. What a great life we're called to in Him! Thanks for the encouragement

This is a very lovely piece. You did a great job, and the words are very nice too.
