Illustrating the Living the Word column each month for Sojourners magazine gives me the opportunity to imagine and depict contemporary interpretations of the biblical message. I like that. Here's one that appeared in the November issue to illustrate the Advent readings. (Copyright 2008 by Julie Lonneman)
Today I completed this portrait of Dorothy Day, drawing it with a Wacom tablet in Photoshop. It's very unusual for me to create something completely digital from start to finish. In general I prefer to work manually, but using the computer seemed the best way to deal with the complexity of this illustration. (Image copyright 2009 by Julie Lonneman)
