Earnest is an experienced artist and illustrator, an Episcopal priest, a teacher, a bible translator,
         a husband, and a parent. His work in graphic translation reflects the sum of the gifts, skills, disciplines and experiences
         of each of these areas in his life.

My Vision for Creating Bible Comics (Graphic Translations)
As an artist, teacher and priest, I see the potential for the comic format to translate the Holy Scriptures in exciting
         ways: 
- it can represent ideas and images in ways tht words alone cannot
 - it can provide a background to the story and fill in gaps that may be left out in the decisions of translations
 - it can bridge the distance between the ancient world and the modern world.
 - it is able
         to cross language and cultural barriers
 - it is able to represent different cultures in the artwork
         itself and allow it to speak to new groups
 
I seek to create such translations and share
         them with people in a variety of formats, electronic and in print. 
I seek to work with writers,
         artists and biblical translators to create graphic translations of books of the bible, most of which is untouched by this
         media.
