The Christian Journey... so far so pencil sketched!

Posted 05 May 2026

I have written earlier in the year about a lady in the Netherlands who asked if I would draw a representation of the journey of faith, from being an unbeliever to becoming a Christian, showing the various milestones along the way to maturity.

Above are the 16 quick pencil sketches I drew, which have been approved. I have inked in a few of the scenes and applied quick colouring, in a effort to establish suitable colour schemes, but need to complete them all & get further approval before I can finish the project.

I thought it might be nice to use the four seasons to represent the aging and maturing of the new believer. In the finished, full colour versions of these 16 pictures the first four pictures are all about leaving the kingdom of darkness (represented by winter colours). Then follows four pictures set in Spring (the early days of Christian belief); four scenes in Summer (maturing faith) and finally four scenes set in Autumn, representing old age and physical death.
