It Was Good: Making Art to the Glory of God

It Was Good: Making Art to the Glory of God

Theodore Prescott
4/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
This book is a collection of over twenty essays on issues relating to making art from a Christian perspective. The volume is filled with color artwork from Michelangelo to Makoto Fujimura and from Rembrandt to Tim Hawkinson.

From the back cover:
What does it mean to be a creative individual who is a follower of the creative God? It Was Good: Making Art to the Glory of God strives to answer that question through a series of essays which offer theoretical and practical insights into artmaking from a Christian perspective.

A Christian looks at the world through the eyes of one who has a restored relationship with the Creator, and receives a new vision affecting every area of life—including the creative process. The Christian worldview is foundational to the approach a believer in Christ takes to making art and may even be found thematically in the resulting work.

Artmaking inevitably raises difficult questions for artists. This book offers aid in developing some of the internal tools needed to work through those questions, and so to glorify and enjoy God while trying to speak with a clear and relevant voice to a fallen world.
