"Beach Dreams" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"Sisters and Friends" is an original oil painting on a stretched 16"x 20" canvas. These two charming sisters seem to have stopped their sand play, to focus on the incoming sailboat, and each others warm and loving company. $350.00. No shipping charge if mailed in the lower 48 states. Please contact me at sandrasart777@aol.com for more information about my works for sell.

I wasn't blessed to have a real blood sister, but God has given me a great sister-in-law, and a wonderful best friend, both have been in my life for nearly 40 years. I am enjoying a visit from my best friend and hate to see her leave for home soon. We allowed so many years to pass without too many visits because of our busy schedules, but finally decided that we needed to put our friendship first for a week, and enjoy each others company. What a great thing a best friend is, one that you can fondly call,"Sis"! 

He lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks.Psalms 107:41

"Washed Ashore" first of a series, by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"Washed Ashore" is painted with mixed media on an 8"x 8" gallery wrapped (all sides painted) stretched canvas.

I had such fun painting this one,that I created two more for a series of various seashells and a starfish.

Seashells remind me of the many times I've gone walking on the beach. From a small child to a middle aged adult, I don't think I will ever tire of hunting for that "perfect" or rare seashell. Our granddaughters enjoy exploring our beach just as much, always returning to Nana and Pop's house with a load of seashells and sand in their buckets. This is a fun  triptych for only $75.00- NO shipping if mailed in the USA!

He is like a father to us, tender and sympathetic to those who reverence him. For he knows we are but dust- Psalm 103:13-14

"Sand and Sea Horses" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer $125.00

Sand and Sea Horses is painted in oils on an 11"x14" stretched linen canvas, ready to frame and hang in your favorite spot, or a great gift for a friend.


We live about 10 minutes from the beach here in southeast Texas,and enjoy walking on the sand,and especially on our granite-lined Jetty. It's so much fun to see the various fish and seafood caught by the many various races of people who love come to fish here. One of my all time favorite trips to the beach is when the waves are up. I am not happy when hurricanes are coming toward the gulf, as usually we need to evacuate, but we try to make it to the beach before leaving so we can watch all of the surfers hit the big waves. Every once in awhile we can spot someone riding their horse on the beach. I have always thought this was such a romantic thing- riding horseback on the beach.There are no large dunes here, but I love the ones I've seen on the Florida beaches we've been able to visit.

Jesus came to the disciples, walking on the water. When they saw him walking on the water, they were terrified. … Jesus spoke to them at once. "Courage!" he said. "It is I. Don't be afraid!" Matthew 14:25-31

"Beach Dreams" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"Beach Dreams" is painted on a 16" x 20" stretched linen canvas ready to frame and hang in your favorite spot. Can you smell the salt and sand in the breeze as it whips through the two little girls hair. It looks as if they stopped playing with their sand buckets to catch a glimpse of the incoming sail boat. Maybe their mind is on the seagulls,too. Or it could be they are just enjoying each others friendship and company. What a great gift good friends are in our lives, whether they happen to be sisters,cousins, even brothers, the kid who sat next to you on your first day of school, or next door neighbors;friends are a treasure from God.

I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.John 15:15.

"Wind and Waves" palette knife painting by Sandra Reeves Cutrer $75.00

"Wind and Waves" 12" x12" x1.5" gallery wrapped canvas $75.00. FREE shipping inside the USA. Price includes ins. and signature confirmation.


This painting was worked in thick acrylics with palette knives.Mostly monochromatic in color, with its darkness showing the seriousness of a  night storm coming ashore.How rough it must be for the sailors and their boats when sudden storms come upon them. So much like everyday life; those storms can come upon us so suddenly,shocking us to the core.But stay calm,our God is able to quiet the most severe storms.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress. He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven. Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.Psalm 107: 28-31

Second of "Washed Ashore"series by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

This is my second of a series called "Washed Ashore". Mixed media on an 8"x8" wrapped canvas (all sides painted). Once this was completely dry I painted a different seashell in the middle. I am having a blast painting the water,beach,sand and sea shells, especially after all of the extremely cold weather we've recently experienced. The seashells remind me there will be summers on the beach again soon, since spring time has finally arrived!


You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalms 16: 11

"Washed Ashore" Starfish

Third of my "Washed Ashore" series, painted on a 12"x12" wrap around canvas (all sides painted), in mixed media . As you can see this one isn't a sea shell, but starfish and sea shells are neighbors! $75..



Can you imagine life without water? I started thinking about the Bible and water,and how they are very much connected. I found the following information online:

Water is mentioned 722 times in the scriptures. That is less than God, Jesus, heaven or love, but many more times than faith, hope, prayer or even worship. When I found that out I thought it very interesting and wanted to learn more.The first time water is mentioned in the scripture is found in Genesis 1:2. From the beginning of the Bible to the end water flows through the pages of scripture. It is full of passages that link water to Gods creating, blessing and saving work. This alone shows me the importance of water in our spiritual lives.Water symbolizes Gods Word in many places throughout the Bible.

If, as believers, we continue to take the bible and water for granted and contaminate it, waste or spoil it, we will see that we will have difficulties in our physical bodies as well as in our spiritual lives.

When a believer in Jesus accepts the bible and water, cherishes, respects and honors them both as the gifts of God that are freely given to us, we will find our reservoirs full.

These are just a few of the both literal and figurative uses of water in the scripture. I believe that God has something to say to us. I urge you to read, study, and meditate on this further. I know that I will.
Isaiah 12:2,3 Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation."

When the Wind Blows

This is a little miniature that I painted in oils on a 5"x4" stretched canvas.It is a reminder of the many times I spent on the Pass Christian beach which is down the road from Biloxi,MS. So many times hurricanes have blown in, destroying so many of the beautiful homes and businesses; but the people are strong and dedicated to their beautiful beach property, always rebuilding with much faith and determination.

Philippians 4:13 ESV
I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
