Those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.

 – James 3: 18

 

Peaceful Garden I, 16 x 12 oil

This painting is close to finished - needs some flowers I think.  Thank you to our friend Mike for sharing his wonderful garden with Arizona Plein Air Painters last Wednesday.  There was plenty of shade and plenty of photo-worthy scenes to keep me busy painting even when its too hot to be outside this Summer.  What is it about stone, water and plants that refreshes the soul?  I don't know, but I thank God for little oasis of peace. 

(plural for oasis?  oasi?  oasises?)
