The thing that I call “verse art” started in the family of ideas from a book called Praying in Color (which is really cool, you should check it out). What I love most about Praying in Color is that it breaks open the idea of prayer as formal, written, or “just right.” Drawing, doodling, and coloring aren’t prayer because you add words, they are prayer all by themselves. I love words.  I never (previously) knew I needed to be free of them to pray.
