One of the things I like most about Jesus is that he was fully human. I have long thought about what Jesus was like as a young boy, all the things he had to have gone through. For example, he was a carpenter when he became an adult. Well, what carpenter didn’t at one point, when he was just learning, hit his thumb with a hammer? What child hasn’t been scared when they were facing a storm? What child hasn’t felt blue and bored?
These drawings are my imagining Jesus going through some of those same things.
