Day 1: We Only See the Scene
A painting can feel ruined because one passage has gone wrong. In this first day, Steve Puttrich draws on the painter’s studio experience and the stories of Job and Joseph to consider how easily we mistake one difficult scene for the whole story.
Read, reflect, and try a simple studio practice for looking again at a painting you set aside. Then carry the day’s central reminder with you: We see the scene. God sees the story.
