Isaiah 52:7

Image
  My friend is having a baby girl and when I asked her if I could paint her something for their family.  She decided on Isaiah 52:7 and the beginning part of the verse for the painting.   Close up of the bird and flowers.  I'm really happy with how it turned out. I ended up painting over the words once before getting to what it looks like now. I'm glad I did, it looks much better than my first try! This was my first painting since I had surgery on my right hand and elbow and it was harder than I thought it would be to grip my brush for long period of time. I hope with more painting and practice my arm will get stronger. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to paint this for such a sweet family. Painting at the shower. This shower was the most fun baby shower I have ever attended. So blessed by all the wonderful ladies that came.

Daisy painting

This was a fun painting for a sweet friend of mine who recently had a baby. I wasn't sure if there would be too much empty space, but I really like how it turned out.

Rambutan fruit

Image
Here is a recently commissioned painting of Rambutan fruit. This painting is oil paint on canvas. It gave me some difficulty with the composition, but once I got it figured out it turned out really well.  In the painting, the colors are really fun and I enjoyed all details that went into it.

Pink floral paintings

Image
 My friend asked me to help get her ready for her coming baby girl. These two paintings are simple and make a great addition to a little girls room. These are great because they are not too childish and will grow with the little girl.  This one ended up being my favorite one. I really enjoy how the flowers turned out.  Can't wait to meet this sweet baby girl and see her room all put together with her paintings hanging up.

Fear Not

Image
Fear not for I am with you, Be not dismayed. For I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10 My dear friend was moving away and I wanted to give her something to encourage her. This is the verse she chose and the color flowers she wanted. I love this verse for how it points my friend to the only One Who can truly help her and comfort her in this time of transition. This painting is on a 16x20 canvas and is painted with Acrylic paints and oils. If you ever need a gift to encourage someone dear in your life, let's see if we can't design the perfect gift!

Beach scene

Image
  My sweet friend had a baby several months ago and was in town visiting recently.  My friend asked for a beach scene with three silhouettes. This was the desired outcome.  There was a bad glare on my painting on this one so the following one is better without the glare. This is an oil painting on an 8"x15" canvas.
