The eyes. All the eyes looking in the exact same way, in the exact same direction. They look terrified to wake him, but in a cartoonish way.

Oh wow I never looked at it that way. I can definitely see that now. That's an interesting read of the text if that's what the artist was going forward.

I just looked at it again. The fellow on the furthest left and the guy behind him are the only two looking at something else. Who might be the one in the boat not looking at Jesus? I don't know...was he distracted, looking out for danger, bored...?

Man, deep. That is careful watching. In that case, it speaks to all of the emotions we can bring to moments of sinking.

Seems like they are all the younger ones with more questions about faith. The older guy looks like "I got this."
