Title: "Oink-Oink"
Size: 5 x 7 inches
Medium: acrylic on hardboard

I'm just playing with back-lighting again. I love to try to paint that reflective glow on the shadow side. This little pig had a bunch of fresh cut greens on the ground in front of him, and he could not eat them fast enough!

Just playing with texture and color. I Made this painting up from memeories of the North Florida area. We saw many ranches and lovely rolling hills on our drive home.

Reaching, Impressionism landscape, 8 x 10 Daily Painting



"Reaching Out"
8 x 10 inches
Acrylic on Gessoboard
SOLD

Reaching out to those around us, or inward, we all need a touch now and then. God reaches out to us everyday, pursuing us as we rush about our day. He speaks to us through people, through nature, through his written word. Jesus is a gentleman, he never yells, never demands, and never insists we follow his leading. No matter how faithless we are, he still reaches for us, wanting us to talk to him. This scene reminds me of a time when I just heard him say he wants me to share with those around me. I tend to keep my mouth shut, but I have decided that I just can't hold it in anymore. I hope my art reaches you.

Title: "Free Indeed"
Size: 8 x 10 inches
Medium: Acrylic on gessoboard

Just feel like everything in nature is free to exist in the way God intended. Sometimes we have a hard time believing his way.

Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
