"I have loved doing a gospel centered illustration as a birthday present for Jesus Christ for about five years. Two of those years, I didn’t finish the illustration. But this year, I did finish it! It was actually inspired by the song, “Do You Hear What I Hear?” I was thinking about the wind and the star and the baby Jesus. I thought: “What if the wind took the form of God’s hands or guardian wings to wrap around the baby Jesus and His mortal family, saying, they are Mine and in My care?” Some time after sketching the rough idea, I decided to read the accounts in the Bible about Jesus’ birth, looking for inspiration, because I had an idea for what Mary was doing but I didn’t know what to do with Joseph. It was a verse in Matthew that gave me the idea to have him holding her and change her position to be leaning against him, with both of them adoring our Savior. I instantly loved the idea and went for it! Another thing is that I drew Jesus as the main source of light, because He is the light of the world, and the star and wind/wings/hands are a secondary, faint light source.
