Please note, I mis-sized the width on this painting but did not discover my error until after the aution had bids so I couldn’t change it there! If that turns out to be a problem for the winner of this I will work it out with you! I try to be as accurate as I can with all of my work, but sometimes an error can occur.
9 3/16″ W (Not 10″ as stated in the aution) x 8″ H, acrylic on hardboard, painted on location, Peaceful Valley, Spokane, WA.
Bidding starts at only 1 cent on ebay, have fun!
Back to Peaceful Valley today on my lunch break, back to the river! Man, I cannot get away from this place! Not that I want to, its perfect for being so close to a bustling downtown. I can come here and feel the breezes, no cars, be alone, no noise (for the most part, an occasional plane or something). But this area is very special and I think it has become another “Hays road” to me. A painter falls in love with people, places that he sees over and over, and conveying the mystery of that love in paint is a most sacred trust. How blessed I am to be chosen by the Lord to say a little something about his creation, I am of all men most favored.
That’s the way art should “feel” to us I think! You see, I am in the same boat as you beloved, I am not even sure what art is for, or what it is about, I just know that it is viatally important right now that these works of the heart be done and released into the homes of my fellow mankind. I tell you the truth, and I will start praying over every one of my paintings as I pack them up, that the Lord would bless your life, your home, your jobs, your desires, your relationships and bring about perfect peace and harmony in ever way in your life! Surely art together with faith can bring such healing to us? I want to believe that with all of my heart.
Thanks again to all of you who are collecting my work now, you do not know how grateful I am that you believe in me enough to want to buy something else! I had never even considered that folkis would actually “collect” my efforts! I always figured fine art was a one shot deal, you get lucky and someone decides to buy something, and then you never see them again. What a thrill, you have made me so happy, I have seen heaven, and it is you, my darling, my believers, my fellow creations of a very wonderful Creator-Artist, THE Artist of Artists, who has taught me of the mists and the tears, and I love him, and his ways. Or maybe he is she, I think I will make God be a woman, I think women are wonderful!
Though I often do not understand, I am learning that “understanding” is not always needed. 
Blessings and peace to you forever and ever. World without end, amen.
