In most series art (or usually anything else I design for church) I start with an idea or concept I've seen somewhere else. I often purchase a stock photo or design and go from there. With this design I decided I'd like to start from scratch and see what I can create on my own. It was very freeing (and fun) to let my mind wonder and to see it take shape.
Here are my original sketches of Jesus, as well as the final design for Vintage Jesus (I ended up using a purchase vector art background to give it texture).

Very cool. I agree, it really is freeing to step out and do something different.
Nice - you should post some ways you use the design once the series starts.
Love it. Create more. It's helpful to see before/after.
Chris,
Thanks so much for joining us 'round the cultural watercooler at Ethos last week.
I would love for you to join us again this week with a post on your blog.
The more of us that gather the more exciting it becomes.

Thanks so much!!!
