“He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.” -Isaiah 53:3-4 Listen to chapter

WOYWW 808

 Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Sarah's Craftshed and have a look to see what everyone has been doing. 


I haven’t done a great deal, but I did do 3 portraits, of which this is the best one, all using the same reference picture, which is a painting by Cyprien Eugene Boulet.


I really like this painting.  I might have another go this week.

I bought a Dan Brown book "Origin" from a charity stall a few weeks ago.  I actually bought it for an art journal (to go with all the other books I have already bought!),  my husband read it and enjoyed it and now I am reading it too.  I don't think it is as good as previous books of his.  I read them for the story, but with a healthy dose of scepticism and Google by my side🤣🤣.   Some facts are interesting like details of a cult church with it's own pope, split from the R C Church, but I must admit I am a bit bored with it. 

My cold is gradually improving, thank you for all your good wishes.
