God's Aviary

Do you remember on Wednesday I told you about the God's Aviary class?

I thought I would share some more information with you direct from His Kingdom Come.


If you are a new Faithartist, or are looking to improve your art techniques, this class is for you! Faithart102: God’s Aviary is designed for beginners to intermediate level skills. You don’t need to have done Faithart101 before taking this class – but do check it out here.

Each class can standalone, or be purchased as a bundle - all 5 classes for only $35!

Each class within Faithart102: God’s Aviary is a combination of a bible study or research paper and a technique based project. The 5 classes each start from the theme of birds in the Bible and the symbolism and meaning we can discover.

Each standalone class is only $8 with unlimited access and is included in the Faithart102: God’s Aviary bundle for $35.

Each class is by a Foundation Team member.
In the $35 bundle you will receive

God’s Aviary: Birds
Look at the Birds of the Air: Symbolism in the Bible Mary Brack starts us off with focusing on looking at how birds symbolize provision, protection, and renewal. She will show you how to make a journal from a folio for your art and study notes.

God’s Aviary: Nests
Merri Dennis shows us how nests were used as analogies for true safety and refuge as God provides shelter and protection for those who seek him. Merri will show you how to make a mini-album with a window cover using stamps and watercolor pencils.

God’s Aviary: Sparrows
Join Shonna Bucaroff to find out the insignificance of the Sparrow. Why does God use these little birds to illustrate such truth in His Word. Shonna will show you how to create a large keepsake tag book.

God’s Aviary: Doves
Diane takes an in-depth study of the symbolism and significance of the Dove - innocence, love, trust, symbol for Israel - the dove can lead us to a place of rest as well as be a symbol for the Holy Spirit. Diane will show you how to make a simple but stunning mixed media z-fold envelope book.

God’s Aviary: Eagles
This class with Bernice Hopper looks at the significance of eagles in the Bible – how we can see God’s lifestyle plan for us through the attributes of the eagle – soaring, taking us out of our comfort zones (nest building and destruction), faithfulness etc. For her project Bernice has taken a pattern for a tri-fold shutter card and made it into a book.

Stamps and Stencils
HKC has created stamps and stencils for you to use in this bible study technique series! Each teacher will be demonstrating how to use these faithart products during the Faithart102 classes! Purchase of the products is entirely optional and are stand-alone products for use in your faithart! You will be able to find these in the HKC shop.

I do hope you will join us for this exiting new set of classes.

Thanks for stopping by.

A new class

On His Kingdom Come this week we are releasing our new Collaborative class - God's Aviary.

The five Foundation Team members have each made a class which can be bought separately or the 5 can be bought together at a discount.

Check out the class by watching the video or go to Faithart102: God's Aviary

Each class has a Bible study and a technique class.  In my class about Eagles I show hoe to make a tri-fold shutter book.

Fun times!

I decided to play in my new art journal again.

I glued down some bits of old map using Soft Gel under and over the map.

I mixed some Primary Elements Royal Orchid with Clear Granular gel and applied it to the page through a stencil and left it to dry overnight.

I sanded off some of it where I had been particularly heavy handed!  Then I covered over the whole page with black gesso and some water.

Before the black gesso dried I wiped some of it off with a wet wipe.  Then I sprinkled some Primary Elements Indian Copper onto the page.

I sprayed it with water and the pigment ran wherever it wanted when I lifted the page vertically.  As this had worked I did the same on the other page.

I sprinkled the page with Primary Elements Lovestruck and sprayed with water.

After I dried the page I sprinkled it with  Primary Elements Green Pearl.

When I sprayed the water it reactivated the Lovestruck.

However when I dried it the colours mixed together. I mixed some Primary Elements Teal Zircon with the glaze and dry brushed it onto the raised parts.

So what to do now?

Well, I stamped with Black Archival although it didn't show up too much.  I glued 3 Tim Holtz Pen Nibs.  I tore a piece of paper napkin and glued just the top layer to the page and then stuck a saying on the top.

It's all a bit dark and the photos don't show the colours too well.  However I enjoyed playing and next time I'll use white gesso!

Thanks for stopping by.
