Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
For my dear Scandinavian friend. Welcome to flickr. Let's have tea or chat in-person again soon . . . and visit lillylane's knits too.
The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.

Goal: To brand the new proverbs sermon series.
Audience: Small suburban Chicago congregation. Variety of ages but skewed toward younger. A bit more traditional style church.
Direction: From the pastor:
"I want the graphics to communicate a feeling of sophistication and intelligence. Think of a feel that would be appropriate for the intelligentsia of our day. Something that speaks to those who enjoy intellectual exercises and consider themselves to be smart. Main idea of the series is that true wisdom is found in God's Word, especially Proverbs, not in self-help books like at Barnes and Noble. True wisdom is knowing Christ as Savior."
Three different directions.
- The lighthouse is a metaphor for Proverbs' guidance and showing wise and unwise paths.
- The flowchart is more of a academic take on intelligence. Proverbs provides a guide somewhat like the flowchart, giving many comparisons between the wise person and the fool.
- The chess pieces point to the types of activities done by some intelectual elite. A wise move can make or break the game.
Project: Sermon series
Other important info: I am going to present these directions with revisions to the pastor today. I am mainly looking for some quick feedback on the concepts. These are concept sketches for approval, not refined, so let me know if these concepts are communicating the theme effectively.

Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out in roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; it's leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit. - Jeremiah 17: 7-8
Proverbs 18:10 (ANIV)
The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
There are two versions of this scene:
01) (Previous page) Proverbs 18v10 - Strong tower (Version 01). In this version the sky is blue and the land the tower is on has a green hue. Colour contrast between sky, landscape and trees is more striking in this version.
02) (This page) Proverbs 18v10 - Strong tower (Version 02). In this version the sky is red and the land the tower is on has a red-brown hue, similar to the foreground rocks. The tower is also redder in hue than in version 01. I was trying for a much more autumnal colour scheme in this version.
This scene was designed for a greeting card I have in mind. In version 01 I was aiming for a rich red autumn colour rendering in the Acer trees in the picture, which contrast strongly with the greys, greens and browns in the foreground and mid ground elements. The distant mountains have pale violet tones indicating aerial perspective (distance).
Version 02 of this scene brings more orange browns into the foreground and mid ground landscape, coupled with the yellows and reds in the sky, all of which has the effect of harmonising the design and reducing colour contrast in the scene. I was aiming for an autumn feeling to the whole picture.
