Bible Journaling - Exodus 26

In Exodus 26, we find that God gives Moses the plans for the Tabernacle. There are a number of curtains that need to be woven for this. I opted to stencil use a stencil of a sewing machine for this layout, focusing in on the softer fabrics that were used in the construction of the Tabernacle. I also paint a curtain in the colours specified in the chapter. I show you how I did this in today's blog.

Exodus 26 looks like this in the Inspire Praise Bible.

I seal the pages with Zellen Clear Gesso.

My pages look like this when the gesso is dry.

I bought this stencil on a sale and now finally find some good use for it. I trace the outline of the stencil with a pencil.

I then draw the curtains with Derwent Inktense Pencils.

I activate the Inktence with a Pentel Aquash Brush.

I then paint the sewing machine in the same manner.

I add some finishing touches to the machine and the tie-back on the curtain with metallic pens.

The completed layout.
