What a creative and fun way to portray the meaning of Christmas in a hip and modern style.  Take a look at the deviation page to read up on the symbolism used.  Great job Maybeimalion7!

When is the last time you saw something this unique?  Personally I have never seen the Christmas story illustrated this way.  Great job using your creative abilities to glorify God!

1st place winner

simbalm with the entry:

 3,000

This one blew my mind.  You MUST read the description at the deviation and examine the painting in full view. Each time I look at it I discover another nugget of treasure. This winning entry is truly deserved.  Not only is the description amazing, the craftsmanship of the painting and the planning effort that went into it truly represents the love and quality of work that we desire at  This is a beautiful example of Christian art.  And a remarkable example of doing our best to use our God given talents to glorify our Lord. Thank you so much devsimbalm: for allowing us the opportunity to include this painting in our gallery.

Surprise!!!

We wish to honor each of our 3 winners with a special feature widget on our profile.  We will also showcase some select art from their galleries.

Please join us in celebration of the winning entries, as well as thanking everyone who participated in this contest. We truly love our little Christian community here.  Be sure to visit each one and give the artists some love and encouragement.
