Illustrated Book

These are several of the images of original watercolor paintings that

I did for The Multi-colored Promise.

It is a children's book retelling the story of God's grace shown

to Noah and his family in the book of Genesis.

These are some of the images from a book that was authored by my cousin, Brenna Boring Phillips, and I had the pleasure of illustrating.

It is available through Amazon, or feel free to contact me for purchase information at jchamlee@yahoo.com.

Second Crest at Ivy Creek Elementary

The first Ivy Creek Crest is in the

Leadership Training Room

that is utilized for specific meetings.

However, the administration decided

they wanted their crest featured on

a more prominent wall in the school

for all to enjoy!

So, I rendered the crest a second time!

This one is approximately 5x7 and

is on a wall adjoining the new and the

old portions of the building.

Ivy Creek Elementary Leadership Training Room

This hand painted border surrounds the room, and

draws your eye around the once blank classroom.

These two compass rose images are to the

left of the front white board.

They will serve as a backdrop

for the framed poster titled "Direction".

I projected this quote over the bulletin board

and freehanded it in black, brown, and white tones.

Ivy Creek Elementary School Crest

Approximately 5'x8', this is the crest for Ivy Creek Elementary School.

It is painted in their Leadership Training Room which will house numerous

staff training events, and area Administrator meetings.

Cooper Elementary Media Center

Phase I of the Cooper Elementary Media Center in Gwinnett County.

The Red, Silver, and White columns are for the school's new colors...

Cooper Tigers!

The inner trey ceiling is surrounded with text:

"The more that you read,
the more you will know.
The more that you know,
the more places you'll go!"

"...And they Lived Happily Ever After."

"In a land far, far away..."

"Once upon a time..."

"The End"

Woodward Mill Elementary Mural

Woodward Mill Elementary Mural

This rendering of the school's namesake, the original

Woodward Mill is on the main foyer wall. It measures

approximately 14'x10'.

Woodward Mill

Woodward Mill then....



Woodward Mill as it appeared in an old photograph.

It once stood at the intersection of Interstate 85 and

Hwy 20 near the Mall of Georgia in Gwinnett County

on Ivy Creek.







Woodward Mill site now....



Now located beside the greenway of the Gwinnett

Environmentaland Heritage Center, nothing remains

today of the old mill except the mill pond, a small

spillway, and the old wheel.

Coming Soon...Illustrations for a book about Noah!

One of my next projects involves illustrating

a children's book about Noah and the flood!

...more later!

Freeman's Mill Elementary Media Center Mural

Gwinnett County's Freeman's Mill Elementary

Media Center mural in memory of their

Clinic worker who passed away during

the 2009-2010 school year.

My first attempt at a mural with people!

This little guy is wearing a

Freeman's Mill Firebird

Mascot on his t-shirt!

This is a quaint Elementary school

just outside of Dacula, Ga.

There are actually some scenes

like this still in the area!

"People may not remember exactly what you did, or what you said,

but they will always remember how you made them feel."

... a fitting tribute.

One last view of the wall...over your left shoulder as you enter the
media center. There will be book shelves built under each of the sets
of windows. Just in front of this area is an adorable seating area
with a colorful rug and child-size sofa and chairs!

Vacation Bible School Decorations

My latest artistic endeavor!

Sanctuary Decorations for Saddle Ridge Ranch VBX

at Lawrenceville First Methodist Church!

Everything was hand-made or recycled!

No purchases necessary!

The campfire and logs utilized posts we made

for the children's Spring Musical "Fish Tales" last year!

The covered wagon was made from a "door" back-drop

from an old production turned on it's side.

Swim noodles and bulletin board paper formed

the wagon cover! The wheels were hola hoops

covered with yellow bulletin board paper and

painted to look the part!

Finally, the Blazing Star Stable was made
of a "tiki hut" left over from our VBX two years
ago! (It served as a train depot last year!)
