The 9th issue of the Take 4 series "CLOSER" focuses on our Lenten journey and calls us to take off our sandals as we enter holy ground - as we enter the Holy season of Lent and try, as much as we can, to keep our closeness to Jesus on this pilgrimage. We will notice that making ourselves available to God, for Him to work in us and through us has amazing results.
The artwork for this devotional focuses on Jesus, desert landscapes and elements pertaining to a journey. I used watercolors, acrylics, ink for the drawings and also digitally made artworks. There is a 4 week structure for this issue.
The digital version of this kit offers even more art to use for journaling and it is available as an add-on in the Open Journey shop.
The original artwork, from acrylic and watercolor paintings, photography, drawings and various mixed media techniques, accompanies the devotional to be used in your journaling, offering a visual aid to your meditations. It comes in the form of stickers and printed images on card stock, along with stamp sets and stencils which are separate additions to this kit. The association of the typewriter and flowers imagery hints to the Life giving qualities of the Word of God, and so are all the floral and botanical elements. The contents of the kit: + Devotional booklet ( 18 pages, 5x7, also has room for journaling) + 4 clear sticker pages with coordinated artwork ( 5"x7" ) + 4 white sticker artwork pages (5"x7") + 5 card stock pages (3"x5") + 1 Word Focus cards +1 mood board card + 2 Notes + other themed stickers
