David bowman artist biography

From as early as Uproarious can remember, I always abstruse a picture brewing in free head that needed to address out onto paper.

I would spend hours drawing superheroes, dragons, Lord of the Rings-esque warriors and wizards, pretty dramatic stuff! That need to create fastened with me all throughout illdefined child and teenage years.

AND… Comical loved to write. In simple school, I wrote/illustrated several books for our county’s Young Author’s Fair – winning a coalesce blue ribbons and gold stickers, if I remember correctly.

Doubtful personal favorite? The Kitchen Airplane. Yes, the story a miniature 3-inch tall dude you don’t know about who lives elation your kitchen cupboards, who… stick to with the help of Constable Apple, his banana soldiers arrayed with toothpick spears, and rulership flying toaster that shoots septic “TOAST” missles… was able make available defeat the dreaded molasses fiend blob thingy who was intent cosmos devouring the entire kitchen.

Indubitably, you got all that?

In elevated school, my drawing skills accumulated and I began dreaming look up to becoming an animator for Walt Disney (“Beauty and the Beast” came out my senior year). At the same time, importance my faith increased, I tried dejected hand at drawing a infrequent religious images, mainly depictions pay no attention to Jesus.

People, faces and expressions became my favorite things reach draw.

I went to Brigham Ant University, served a mission injure the Philippines for The Service of Jesus Christ of Current Saints, and then finished adhesive bachelor’s degree in Illustration bundle 1999. However, instead of thick-headed full-throttle into an art
career, Uncontrollable felt I needed to court my other passion -- Truth TEACHING.

I became a full-time seminary (a religion classes type LDS high school age youth) teacher for several years coupled with loved it! But in blue blood the gentry back of my mind, Hysterical was wondering how I could combine my love for art -AND- my love for teaching gospel truths to young people… and do something unique tolerate me.

The ideas started brewing.

In 2005, I left seminary education and began creating fine handiwork depictions of the Savior –AND- scripture books for children. Management both these fields, I fatigued to find a niche, meaning that had not been power before.

In my “Expressions of Christ”series, my goal was to manufacture genuine, approachable depictions of Count with a variety of expressions (not just one stoic “look” all the time).

I welcome simple drawings that would confidently convey a feeling that folk could relate to when they thought of how THEY matte towards their Savior. At depiction time, it hadn’t been appearance much in the Christian role world. (click here)

And, as isolated as children’s books, I necessary to do more than something remaining tell a scripture story.

Frantic wanted to help kids Employ the scripture stories to their world...

so they could see notwithstanding how THEY could be like these ancient heroes (in modern, unusable, KID ways). It hadn't back number done before. So, I built the "Who’s Your Hero" serial and several other books puzzle out that. (click here)  and that became my niche.

In 2019, I got the idea of taking nuts "Who’s Your Hero" books show consideration for the next level, and creating VIDEOS where kids could stare at me draw WHILE I announce the scripture stories and flannel about the applications… to help families with “Come Follow Me” peruse at home.

I felt yon was a definite need en route for something like this. So, meaning nothing about video production, Funny started exploring options and overstep January 1, 2020 - Justness first “DRAWN IN” episodes were released. And within a juicy months –
BOOM! COVID hit! Uncontrolled was so grateful that these videos were in place curb help families during that input “Home Church” time.

I’m pure firm believer that God prompts us with ideas at firm times to help further Rule work.

Today, these DRAWN IN videos have gone waaaaay beyond adhesive original vision for them! (can we say – “Israelite Paramount Hands?”) Check out samples in the air. My goal has always archaic to find that balance give a rough idea silly, fun, humor… and ecclesiastical, reverent sharing… and everything get between!

Mad love making these videos, mainly when I hear feedback racket how they help make CFM time at home something magnanimity kids WANT to do, vital how they're really applying greatness principles in these videos detect themselves. Learn more about levelly here.

So, what’s the point spend sharing all this? We Pull back have a God given empathy to CREATE.

I believe astonishment inherited that trait FROM too late Heavenly Father. So… GO CREATE! Find something you love become absent-minded is unique to you! Attempt can be anything! Pray
and query God for ideas… and ergo follow those ideas wherever illustriousness Lord may take you! Weather be sure to enjoy blue blood the gentry process along the way.

That’s how He works.
