Rush Hour $95.00- by Sandra Reeves Cutrer


Rush Hour. Someone rightly said many years ago,time marches on and waits for no man. Running water reminds me of time. When I watch water running,especially on a rocky creek bed or stream , it has such a soothing effect. The sound is nice, but I'm always curious as to where it is in such a hurry to get to. Maybe the water isn't really going too far, before it reaches a smaller stream, and then a quiet pool, where it can take a deep breath and slow down for awhile. Maybe it's flowing sort of slowly from where I am standing at the moment, only trying to fool me into believing it will stay like that before it builds up great strength to go crashing down with a loud roar into a huge water fall farther down stream, where it will shockingly find itself in an even faster running river that eventually leads to an even greater body of water,the ocean! Whatever the case may be, it seems the water is always in a hurry, just like people.Take the time to meander today, not tomorrow. Watch the sunset on the river, or the bustle of the funny little stream. Smell those wildflowers, or listen to a  mother bird chattering high in a tree at some unwelcome squirrel. Stop and watch children at play. Go outside and sit in the evenings, taking in your neighbor's dinner cooking down the street. Painted on a gallery wrapped 12" x 12" x1" canvas (all sides painted a dark hue)  $95.00

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.Psalm 118:24

"Rush Hour" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer $95.00


This is the same painting that I posted yesterday, with a few changes. I spent another hour or so on it today, which was still pretty quick work for me to call "finished" ( am I ever really finished with a painting??)
I hope you'll enjoy viewing it. I name it,"Rush Hour" because the rushing water reminds me of how we rush our time here on earth. Such a hurry, and for what? Thinking about this, and how guilty I am of rushing, it makes me stop and take a deep,deep breath. God, with your help, please allow me to notice when I am doing this, and help me to stop and pay attention to the day that I am in. This is my life, and I should take in every moment you have so graciously given to me.Amen!
12"x12"x1.5" gallery wrapped canvas,oils, $95.00.
