I really wanted to emphasize that the focus is not on angels, they are God's messengers, they always remind us of Christ. The fallen angels will show up as lost loved ones and try to keep us from moving on. They will do anything to keep our focus off of our hope. If we aren't careful we can forget where our thoughts and prayers should be.

Bear Side, fall scene, mountain landscape
About This Painting: Tried another palette knife painting on gallery wrap canvas. The painting continues on the deep sides, so framing is not needed.
Painted this one from memory. When I get to go back home to visit my family in Montana and Washington State, I take lots of pictures, especially if we go up in The Rockies. My older brother lives near Glacier National Park now, so I love staying at his house!
Instead of using my photographs, I just made this one up as I went along. It was fun to change, add, and rearrange things until I found this composition, which I think is very strong because of the diagonal lines and the bright colors. I added the little bear near the tree line because I always see deer, or bear, or something, every time I go back!

Early Fall, mountain landscape with a stream
This painting started as a palette knife demonstration, then I added more details and color when I got home. The palette knife is perfect for water because it creates a sparkling effect. Let the paint dry and gently add the bright color over the top and the texture underneath grabs the bright colors....really fun to do.

Shore Line 3, landscape with an egret near a stream
This is a palette knife version of an earlier painting that I really liked, but wanted to see in a different technique. I like it much better this way! The textures make the colors jump off of the painting!

A little Spring, landscape with a natrual spring
About This Painting:
From a painting demonstration for my kid's summer class. I added more detail when I got home. The lesson was on a limited palette. The kids each got to choose a color scheme. (This was my older group.) It was hard for them at first, but once they figured out they could add white and they could get grays, browns and blacks by mixing the colors together, then it became very fun! I love to see the light bulbs turn on as they try new things.
Thanks for looking!

Little Egret, wildlife art, cattle egret, bird
Small palette knife painting of a little cattle egret. Started with a brush, then painted over it with the painting knife for the texture and abstract feel to the overall effect. This is my second animal with a knife, and I really like it!

Healing Hymns, palette knife angel
This is the second part of a commissioned set. The first one was posted a few days ago: "Heavenly Horizons." I love these contrasting colors! I added more detail to the face and the Harp of David, so this one has a different look to it (more realism) but I felt like it needed more this time.
