Final Drawing on the ACGC Slate Chalkboard
Click the image above to see the details.
There are many meanings included here. I'll list a few from left to right:
The falcon coming out of the "art" button from my
ACGC website. The castle I drew in my first "Pencil Dream" poster. A kid trapped in a drip is how I felt sometimes trying to teach young kids. Wine glass for "Redwine". Drips from the top of the board because we were "Oozing enthusiasm and kindness and joy", etc. as a school project. The car because I'd draw cars pretty often on the board. Mother Earth with God's hands pleading with us to pay attention. A big Heart for Karen and 5 little hearts that are my kids. The pipe cross a subtle reference to my faith (attached to heaven). The lips kissing reminiscent of an
Atwater door decoration from 2015. A globe with the Holy Trinity School logo on it because love working there. Another pipe being added to the cross means I'm still learning my faith and the Super hero adding it represents Jesus the ultimate super hero. An eye with a tear because it was a sad day leaving Atwater. And finally the back deck of our house that I built and showed the kids every year when we talked about our self portrait collage. (There are a few more things but you get the idea.)
