5 Photos of Inmate Artwork
I thought I would share some of the artwork that some of the inmates we work with have made. Usually they are not allowed anything but a small pencil. Every once in a while they have a few colored pencils.
These guys are able to create such great pictures with so little. Some of the art reflects their path in life, where they have been to where they are now.
Some inmates are new believers in Christ and are so moved by Jesus, and the stories in the bible, that they want to share it in some way, and art is one of the ways that they choose.
Inmates will sometimes bring these pictures into the bible studies or to our one-on-one visits. Everyone once in a while the guards will allow their art to be hung in the main hallway of their unit. Below are 5 Photos of Inmate Artwork:
1) Daniel in the Lion's Den
This man drew a picture of Daniel in the Lion's Den. This reflects how he feels being in jail and how how God can see him through it.
2) Tiger for Jesus
This inmate said upon his release he wishes to be a tiger for Jesus.
3) The Past and It's Consequences
This picture represents this man's past and the consequences of his actions. Where he has been and where he is knowing that he has hurt so many around him,
4) Discovering Jesus
Picture of Jesus drawn by a new believer.
5) Remember Days in Russia
This picture reminds this inmate of his days in Russia and his favorite TV show "The Americans".
