Everyone Has Their Own Graveyard

I was going to just do my next blog about The Sanctuary, which picks up where Ted leaves us hanging in The Priest's Graveyard, but I just recently completed a design for my class ( I am a Visual Communications major) and wanted to share it. Plus, it is a nice transition between the two books, as Danny and Renee, along with the rest of the world, are always dealing with their secrets. 

This project was a good reminder of how I got onto the path of this blog. Several years ago as a student at the Art Institute, I was asked to create a design based on a quote. Naturally, I wanted to use a quote from Ted Dekker or one of his books. Upon researching, I found there weren't very many. Finally, inspiration struck from the Circle Series, and the "Diving Deep" series was born. 

Of course that wasn't enough for me...I wasn't sure what I would do if I was ever faced with the task of doing another "quote project" as I call them. So I began making a database of my own. Every time I read a Ted Dekker book, I write down sentences that stand out to me or evoke a strong image in my mind. And that is where the blog came from.

For this project, I was going to take advantage of the class time to work on a design for this blog and go with something from The Sanctuary, but the theme worked well for both books and was very inspiring to me at the time. The design is pretty self-explanatory. Take a good long look at each of the gravestones. 

What would be in your graveyard? Everyone has one...
