You took the words right out of my keyboard! This is amazing, and the fact that it is one of todays top voted sculptures means you're reaching a lot of people with your work! It is so encouraging to know that there are other teenaged Christians out there who express their faith through their artwork! God has truely given you a great talent. Don't waste it! In Him, AbbyQ

One day at a time--this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering.

Wow. This is really amazing. It can probably speak to people in different ways. To me, it shows how jesus died for our sins inorder for us to be forgiven. Because we committ sins and learn from them to this day, after asking for forgiveness, we learn, and grow which is what the growing tree can be symbolic of. Nice job! :)

Oh, wow. This is a very powerful sculpture. I love how the figure is not very well visible, but when you look deeper, you see the despair and pain in his face. Very good job !
