Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
Beside Still Waters was inspired by Psalm 23 and its message of hope. It's all in how you read the Psalm as it is a message from God to slow down and take time to remember him and why Jesus asks us to reflect in prayer and while doing it come to a calm place. The actual place is nearby where we used to live in California. A bird sanctuary where other animals live there too, turtles, ducks, and all live peacefully with their families, right next to the bay.
I am a “realist” painter, not a photo-realistic painter. I regard myself as a self-imposed “Representational Realist.” “I only represent, reality, God makes everything, perfectly real.” “Painting for me is much like writing is to an author, once the Paint is put to the Canvas many more than one, can enjoy viewing the Original and finding a Print.”

If you are choosing paper, for wall art and it is to be framed under glass I recommend what I print on, Watercolor Paper. I also print on Canvas, with the same, clear, results. The other surfaces, like Metal and Acrylic make great choices for areas with high moisture like kitchens and baths too. Hanging any Art in direct sunlight is not recommended.
