Shepherd in a Snow Globe | Christmas Diorama

Күн бұрын#Christmas #SnowGlobe #Diorama
For Christmas, it felt fitting to make a diorama of a shepherd, (keeping watch over his flock by night), startled by the appearance of an angel. I attempted OSL in the paint job and threw the whole thing inside a DIY snow glove kit.

I’m not sure Jesus would have much patience for our “religiousness”. He didn’t seem to appreciate the money changers in the Temple very much and it seems like he spent most of His ministry building relationships to me. I expect a lot of modern churches would probably stop Him at the door…. Seems like His ideas tend to be pretty unwelcome in church nowadays. All that “love your neighbor” and “care about others” nonsense. Shame on Him! Who did He think He is? 😆 Merry Christmas friend and don’t let anyone convince you God is trapped in a church or blocked behind some man with a collar. He knows you and He loves you. May not always feel like it and, I’d personally like Him to ask MY opinion on His plans more frequently, but He’s there for you and He’s not as small and wimpy as we tend to think of Him. Pitch Him the hard questions and look for His answers, He’s a big boy. ❤

@@rob2257 Exactly. I consider myself non-denominational and I don't go to church for the reasons you mentioned; I want no middle man between me and Him and I can figure out what He's on about pretty well without some pastor trying to herd me into a Very Specific Narrative like he does everybody else in the interest of controlling me. Not going to happen. Merry Christmas, sir!
@SlartiMarvinbartfast 5 ай бұрын
I don't have a religious atom in my body but I still appreciate the skill that went into this scene. As a general observation, whatever our views, religious or otherwise, people need to accept each other irrespective of our opinions on such matters - this would prevent an awful lot of stupidity such as wars and, in everyday life, harming others for being 'different' in some way.

FYI.. The sheep the shepherds were watching over belonged to the Temple. Point being, the sheep were raised to be sacrificed for Israel's sins. This practice was giving to Moses from God on Mt. Sinai. The for the angel to give this announcement to these shepherds was not by chance, but rather to show that the Messiah was coming into the world to save His people from their sins. Like the sheep, He would have to die to do this. I can't thank you enough for such a lovely job. Your work is always a blessing, but this is very special indeed. Thanks again.

The key to OSL is viewing your workpiece from the point of origin of the light. I like to take a picture from that reference point and everything you see in the picture gets light treatment depending on the intensity of the light source. For lower intensity light sources, the farther away parts of the piece are the less if any light treatment.

I'm sorry if you're not comfortable answering this but I've been wondering for a long time that how modern christians, like yourself, feel about the trend of depicting biblical angels as accurately as they were depicted in the bible instead of the humans in white robes with feathered wings type of "angel".
@historictruthlarson4910 5 ай бұрын
@tappajavittu no worries! It really depends on the Christian. I am personally fine with depicting angels. However, I feel that people should be very careful to make them not objects or worship. Images of Christ and God, however, are different. I feel even greater caution should be taken there. But, like I said before, the question really depends on the christian.

@@historictruthlarson4910 I can totally see some christians, especially older people seeing those kinds of depictions as "demonic" or whatever.
