painting “the hills will hide me”

Last updated on: January 12, 2013 at 6:36 pm   By David Hayward

Buy my original art HERE. The only cure for loneliness is solitude. This is my companion. I go to the hills and hide myself there. The trees shelter me. I am contained within a wilderness, and the wilderness in my heart grows to match it. My heart is as spacious as the wild around me. Yes I’m alone. But I am good. I am very good. Read more

new Sophia drawing “is”

Last updated on: January 12, 2013 at 9:56 am   By David Hayward

The original and prints are available in my store. My Sophia series reflects an interesting journey for me. I began drawing her when I left the ministry and the church in March of 2010. It wasn’t intentional and I didn’t notice the connection at the time. It wasn’t until several drawings in that I realized Sophia was me. I was drawing the spiritual journey of my own soul. Every weekend I would work on my Sophia drawings and post them... Read more

i am in darkness

Last updated on: January 11, 2013 at 10:38 pm   By David Hayward

Even in the darkness there is beauty. If you can see. Someone asked me to do a painting I did in watercolor to do the same thing in acrylic on canvas. This is what I came up with. Buy original art. Read more

jesus messes with the food

Last updated on: January 11, 2013 at 8:47 am   By David Hayward

No, this isn’t in the bible. But it makes a good story, doesn’t it? I suppose if this were today and Jesus was resurrecting people, his handlers might want his campaign to be able to assert, “This has not been tested on animals.” So much for turkey dinner. Buy original art! Read more

the need to leave

Last updated on: January 10, 2013 at 6:14 pm   By David Hayward

(This original painting is available!) You’ve kept your place. You’ve held your ground. You’ve filled your space. You’ve stayed in bounds. But something calls. You know you must. You forsake all. You will be blessed. It’s time to go. It’s time to leave. This much you know: this is your peace.   Read more

insisting you are right you are not

Last updated on: January 10, 2013 at 9:55 am   By David Hayward

This has nothing really to do with my cartoon, but I wanted to offer an explanation about the membership subscription to The Lasting Supper. There is a misunderstanding that I’m not sure how to clear up. People jump to the conclusion that they have to pay to be a part of the community. But that’s not really it. Some might feel I’m fine-tooth combing, but it is an important distinction I want to try to clarify. People are paying for... Read more

Jesus Nightmare

Last updated on: January 7, 2013 at 9:09 am   By David Hayward

Poor Jesus has no idea what’s in store for his name. Nor does his poor mother. And we’ve yet to see the end of it. As for me, I’m changing things right here in my own heart. I have some paintings, original Sophias, cartoons and prints available! Read more

new painting “degrees of separation”

Last updated on: January 6, 2013 at 9:48 am   By David Hayward

This is a new commissioned painting I completed yesterday for a client who requested it. I have done many similar to this theme. What it speaks to me is the sense of nearness we have and yet the feeling of separation we sometimes feel. This is especially true of online relationships. I believe they can be incredibly valuable. But there are challenges to be recognized and overcome. One of the things that most people feel when they leave the church... Read more
