Hello and welcome! It’s been a year since the formation of the 1241 group… This marks the first posting of a project that started more than 6 months ago. The group initially started out with Rob Schwager, Von Glitschka and Paul Howalt coming to the conclusion that there needed to be a community of nationally published illustration talent that shared the common bond of Christian faith to come together for exchanges, constructive criticism and encouragement from a faith based perspective. The group grew from 3 to 12 members… a name was chosen, and then group grew even larger. After constant ‘clogging’ of member’s email boxes with ongoing exchanges on all topics from Communication Arts to Harry Potter Books, we decided that a 1241 BLOG SITE was a MUST! Well, this is it! So Gather ’round everyone, critique, post, inspire and participate in the back and forth. We welcome input from people of all faiths and social/political views! We simply ask that contributors respect each other’s unique perspective as we all try to navigate our courses through life.
