An artist’s goal is not to repaint a scene, but to capture a feeling, a moment, the spirit. I can only do that with His help.

Lana: You are correct! This Cooper’s hawk has been revisiting my bird hot spot for several days. He has to eat too, so I don’t mind :)

Mary: Thank you so much!

And I love your sketch–how you’ve captured the idea of “hawkness.” I was talking with Jesus about this kind of thing concerning a picture of leaves, and He said to me that the painting I had seen was in a sense more real than a photograph because the artist strives to capture the spirit of a subject while a photograph only shows what the thing looks like. Cool! Great job on the hawk!

Love, Cindy
