Fellowship, mixed media on paper, 72 x 48 inches, 2006 (SOLD)
This drawing is a visual definition of the word "fellowship". Pastor Jimmy Smith, a man I dearly admire and respect once stated, "Two fellows in the same boat makes a fellowship. While two men in the same boat are out on the water; if it's rough on one it's rough on the other. If it's raining on one it's raining on the other. If it's hot on one it's hot on the other, and if you fish like I do, if one's catching fish the other one's going to be catching fish."
1 John 1:5-7 "This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin."
