Ash Wednesday Illustration

An illustration I put together for an Ash Wednesday service at Hope College. It's based on Jesus' time fasting in the wilderness for 40 days, where he was tempted by the devil. The project itself was a tough one to tackle. It forced me to meditate on the coming lenten season almost inescapably, which can feel both good and bad - contemplating one's own mortality. Hoping in this season of fasting, to be filled with whatever it is The Lord might have for me.
