Collage by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

This was such fun to make,totally out of my oil-painting-box! Sometimes it just feels great to try something new and fresh,to open yourself up to new ideas. I have a couple of boxes full of things to make more collages with when I feel the urge to try something "free-spirited". Sometimes when our granddaughters come over, we go out to my studio and paint fun things.They have painted on canvases,plastic bottles,paper, and wood. I have several canvases of their hand and foot prints plastered all over large canvases when they were younger. What fun (and sadness) these paintings bring to my heart when I see how much they have grown! Try something new today, keep fun in your life,laugh much, dream, and keep hope on your daily to-do list.
  
Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he. Proverbs 28:19

"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

"Abstract" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

Now part of a private collection. This painting was done in thick acrylics and oils, using copper,gold,green and other earth tones.
I love painting with earth tones. My home decor is full of earth tones. I find them calming and serene. Wasn't God smart to give us such harmony in nature. Such awesome colors here and there, perfect balance in all things- whether under the great depths of the mysterious seas and oceans, all the way up to the highest mountain tops- there is color- whether reflective light,our own shadows, or cast shadows, there is color.
Sold- prints are available at Sandra-Cutrer.artistwebsites.com

All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. John 1:3 ESV

"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

"All That Jazz" by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"All That Jazz" is painted on a 24" x 24" x 2.5" high quality, thick gallery wrapped stretched canvas (all sides are painted). I used thick acrylics, oils, palette knives and big brushes for this expressionistic-realism painting.

I love to hear someone playing the saxophone, and am especially proud of our younger granddaughter who is learning to play this amazing instrument in her band class.  Every once in awhile my husband and I get to make it to New Orleans, and I love to go to Jackson Square and hear the people playing all of the different Jazz and Blues music.  Along with the many genres of music and chic-to-shabby art galleries, come the tempting aromas from places like Cafe Du Monde, the tongue tickling smells of fresh baked bread as the local sandwich shops prepare their lunch time famous muffaletta's, and the many seafood restaurants filtrating the old brick streets that linger with the scent of late night dinners and parties by the dozen. contact  me at sandrasart777@aol.com.  For a price on all of my works for sell, please scroll through my listings. All shipping prices include ins. and signature confirmation.

"Falling Leaves" in oils by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

Although this painting is now part of a private collection in New Orleans,LA, it remains one of my most favorite. Done in oils on a 16"x20" stretched linen canvas, with palette knives and several thick layers for added texture. I love the rich colors and the rhythm of the work.The leaves seem to be floating off of the deep red background
