About William Darnell Sr.

(Show Details...)

Hello, Everyone.

My name, is William Darnell Sr. I'm a retired carpenter, and a father of 5 grown children, 4 boys, and a beautiful daughter. My wife's passed away, 13 yrs now, so that makes me, a widower. My oldest, a son, is passed as well. I also have 6 grandchildren, 4 boys, and 2 beautiful granddaughter's. I've been writing poetry for around 20 yrs. My inspiration's God, my 7th grade English teacher, and my woodshop teacher. The greatest thing I have ever done, was married my wife, may she rest in peace, and the children she has given us. I was supposed to write a story of a tragedy that has happened to my family. But, having some difficulties. So, I'm just going to come right out and tell you. Two of my children had been raped, by a family member as some or maybe most of you might well know. My late wife's little brother done this. I hold myself responsible, most say, it wasn't my fault and I get that. But, the truth is, we knew. more to come... And, for this reason alone, that we knew, I hold responsible. I, as a father, husband, protector, and a man should have been assertive, regardless of my wife's feelings, having our children's best interest at mind, and said no, absolutely not! Ok, this is a Bio, an entry as to who I am, a briefing. I'll carry this story over to my blog. Anyways, that's me!

Best of Wishes,

William

Christ Weeps To The Father

Titled: "Christ Jesus Weeps; To Our Father God!"

I thought I would utilize the whole 9x6" drawing sheet from the pad and work on the "water look" for someone crying?! Have a bit to go to capture the tears as they appear rolling down the cheek. Not bad, I've not done too many wet look drawings. It took quite some time to finish this portrait, Jesus Weeping; I have a lot of spiritual poetry; I can incorporate with: "The Still Voice," I wrote some years back, sticks out as it just popped into my mind while typing this blog.

Anyways, Folks, have a great day! Enjoy!!!

Best of Wishes,

William

I love this drawing William, it is beautiful. I'm thinking about you, though I don't know you except for your recent blog and the tragedy of your house fire. I want you to know we are still praying for you. I hope you are able to get back to your art, poetry and peace soon. Hoping you update soon. Your poet sis in Christ, ~BJ

Well, as simple as it looks, practicing the talent of drawing does have its setbacks, but I love it. Thanks for your comment and visit, as I do value both. Best of Wishes, William

Thanks for sharing your talent. Beholding the Saviour weeping for mankind's redemption through the eyes of faith humbles me. Your painting all the more makes vivid such sight. Thanks. God bless you.

Hi, Beata! Thank you for stopping by and commenting. I love our Lord, with all I am. He had brought me out of many storms when I thought my boat would sink. He is my World. Best of Wishes, William PS; thank you for your beautiful spoken words of Christ.

William, your portrait extends a depth that is truly touching, and forgive me for I was unable to find on your list of poems your mentioned poem, 'The Still Voice'. That led me to consider that you've written spiritual poetry aplenty, whereto, the inner voice that I believe is greater than me, led me to your poem, "Departure: My Son". Poignancy resonates with your replacing Christ Weeping, as being you. I am deeply sorry for the loss of your firstborn, Billy Patrick, also for Eoin's loss of his father. Shine in the eternal light of glowing hearts, my friend. Aloha!

Wow, William, a noteworthy comment that I'm at a loss for words here. Truly you have me overwhelmed at the moment. I may have to come back to your comment or perhaps I might send you SoupMail. I have tears of joy for sure! Best of Wishes, William

Thank you, Constance! I thought people might enjoy it and, seeing how yesterday I usually bask in the essence of spirit with my wife and God. So, I finished the piece in the morning. I was just inspired to do it. Do you know how much I value your opinions, visits? Bunches! You're always welcome too. Thanks again, Constance; your comment was excellent; so, perhaps I did capture the tear. Best of Wishes, William
