Bible Marginalia- The WORD


Bible Marginalia Series- #119

The first Chapter of John.
Just packed.
Ideas bigger than any image
 I could even think of to draw.
My go-to work then
 is often horizontal margin.
A sideways tilt.
Draw 4 wavy lines. 
Fit in the words top to bottom. 
Color in just like you want.

BEGINNING
THE WORD
WITH GOD
WAS GOD
BECAME FLESH
DWELT AMONG US.

Complex.
Faith surrounded.
Yet comforting,
all-encompassing.

WITH, WAS and IS
melting together as ONE.
That is universe shaping.

This is the two pages combined
 in the first and second chapter of John.
Neutral colors and black.

Supplies:
(for right side)
Washi tape
Colored pencils
 Fine-point Sharpie pen
