It Doesn't Need to Be Perfect!
I recently ministered at a camp for adults with developmental disabilities and I loved it. One of the things the staff did was used music and videos to give the campers “dance breaks” of physical activity during the time between events. Most of these were line dance, “Hey Macarena” type songs, but occasionally they would share a video clip. That’s where I was first introduced to The Duck Song.My expectations were pretty low. It’s digitally drawn, very simplistic and the most basic of animation,…See More

You’re a Minister and If You’re Not, You Should Be!
I just got done listening to Dan Miller on his 48 Days to the Work You Love internet radio show. While I no longer am really searching for work and am very happy with my current life, I also realize that there are things that I can do to make myself better. In the process I can also do everything I do better to the benefit of all the people I get to serve. Dan Miller has been someone who has inspired me greatly over the years and I continue to gain quite a bit of wisdom from him. The show today…See More

It Matters Because You Matter
Hi my name is Dave Weiss and I love what I do. I love painting my pictures, pastoring my church and preaching God's Word. I love writing and encouraging creatives, talking about art and creative ministry, and I really love doing this blog, even if I get behind sometimes.Every once in a while though something happens that gets me rattled, or maybe something I created falls flat or someone says something that makes it all feel pretty insignificant. Have you ever been there? You might look at all…See More

So here’s what happened. We did a showing of The War Room at our church as a lead into a Bible study we will be doing based on the movie. The DVD provided from the production company had a preview in the beginning of the disk. It was set up in a way that I usually find a little obnoxious, so that you can’t forward through the previews to get to the movie. It wouldn’t have been so bad but our computer was struggling to play the whole movie and it froze on us two or three times. The end result…

I am pleased to announce two more titles from my Making Faces Series. Creatures and Monsters Books 1 and 2. I give you half a face on a grid and using symmetry and the observation skills so necessary in art to complete the face, then color and decorate as you see fit. They are really fun and I think you will really enjoy them.
