She speaks with wisdom

A sweet family from church had a little girl and to celebrate I painted Scripture for the nursery. The gift of art to new or growing families is the highlight of what I do. The Couple requested Psalm 31:26 (Their first daughter's artwork centered on Psalm 31:25. To see more about this painting you can go to http://kati-yates-art.blogspot.com/2015/04/proverbs-3125-baby-shower-present.html . ): The hope of a kind and encouraging daughter truly influenced this piece at all levels.  The girls may share a room in the future, so I wanted to paint something  unique and special for daughter two, but something that would also compliment her older sister's painting. The text/background interplay with light and dark was fantastic! Considering the gift of art, for your own wee ones or a growing family you love? Contact me to begin creating a work that's lasting and cherished today!

World Traveler

My sister has lived in amazing places in her life. To commemorate such adventures, she commissioned the following map. She'll put picture frames showing all the places they have lived around the canvas. The continents spoke to the limitlessness of where they could go as a family, and the colors mimicked the vastly different cultures and situations in which they had survived and thrived. This one was especially fun because I have tracked all their adventures as they've moved, and I thoroughly  enjoyed creating a focal point for their realization and remembrances of these times.  Here are two different shots with different lighting. This canvas is 30"x24" on stretched canvas, painted in oils.  This was such a fun painting to do with all the bright colors. If you would like art that represents your own adventures message me for details.
