Yellow Tulips in Blue Vase

8 x 6″ oil paint on canvas sheet

The background and vase were successful; the tulips not so much. I just could not land the yellow I wanted, so this may be painted over (again).

Providence

Many thanks to the photographer of these strong mother instincts of care, sustenance, and providence. I find such wonderful images from time to time on the free photo site Pixabay.

Rear Guard

“The God of Israel will protect you from behind.” (Is. 52:12)

By Paths Unknown

“I will lead them in paths that they have not known… ” (Is. 42:16)

Aspirations

At age five, I watched a black and white tv rendition of “The Nutcracker”, and was sure that I wanted to be a ballerina.

Meet Sr.Maresa

I am Sister Maresa Lilley, a member of the Sisters of Notre Dame, located in Chardon, Ohio, USA. For many years, I have enjoyed a passion that permits me to reflect upon simple reality with a brush in hand. To capture a simple essence on canvas and to discover inherent beauty is a daily immersion.
