My Take on the DVD
This DVD provides the viewer an amazing Easter story for all to view. Over the years I have seen many renditions of this story, but this is the first unique one that I have seen that I have wanted to watch over and over. What was different in this DVD was the incorporation of artistic impression throughout the DVD.

This DVD was infused with beautiful chalk art that you do not usually see. My girls loved watching this DVD and asked many questions after watching it and I was happy to watch it with them and be able to answer their questions.
Outside of the DVD itself were wonderful art lessons that provide step-by-step instruction in using chalk pastels, creative lettering and using water colors. These lessons combine spirituality and the bible with art and the lessons were very easy to follow and learn from.
I highly recommend this DVD to all!
