"When the Trumpets Sound" three young elephants in oils

"When the Trumpets Sound" is an original oil painting of three young elephants showing off their trumpeting after coming in from a long day of play, and practicing the lessons their mother's taught them about being elephants! I love elephants, finding them amazing animals, super smart, and very loving- if not provoked. They are fun to photograph and paint, and even greater fun to watch.
Thank you for looking at my work and reading my blog! All  prices are listed on my photo listing on this blog, or please visit my blog @ sandracutrer.com.

Please look at all of my work, and if you have any questions or interested in a commissioned painting of your favorite animal or loving pet, contact me at: sandrasart777@aol.com


In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.

"A Lot of Bull", a long horned Watusi in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

What a hot day. This August heat is tough on everyone- humans and animals alike! This big guy should be headed to the nearest water trough or pond!

I was pleased to get a nice email about my "A Lot of Bull" longhorn painting. I have pasted the story, and hope you will enjoy it as much as I did!

"The Watusi is an amazing animal. We have had our bull for about 10 years. He had his horns tipped and is the only breed we know of that sharpened them back up. He is very protective of his new lady love, a red Watusi heifer. He is amazing, when I fed them cubes he waited until she came up to the trough to start eating. A gentleman, lol. Our neighbor likes it when he bellers..he sounds like a male elk."
Thanks for the story,Kathy!

A Lot of Bull is painted in oils on a 24"x30"x1.5" wrap around canvas ( all sides are painted), so no need for framing. $225.00 plus shipping.

Fruit of the Vine, a still life in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

"Fruit of the Vine", a still life painted in oils on a  24" x 30" 1.5" stretched wrapped canvas- all sides painted, I could use a glass of that wine about now...

So, I haven't blogged in 5 days. :(  It took me two days just to re-design my blog, and work on some other art business that I needed to catch up on. I don't know who stated that technology makes everything so much faster! I find technology great for some things, but the more there is, the more it eats up my time!!! Whatever happened to quiet days in the studio... LOL. I find myself rushing to the studio, spending less time there than I do on my computer... but, I know I am hooked and I can't live without my P.C., cell phone, face book, websites and blogs... what am I complaining about???

May God give you of the dew of heaven and of the fatness of the earth and plenty of grain and wine

"Methai" an elephant painting by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"Methai", one of the many Indian elephants that make their home at the Houston Zoo, is painted in oils on an 8"x 10" pastel board in a painterly style.

I believe that the Creator of millions of different species of animals, birds, insects and fish is a God who loves variety and adores all of His creation. A careful study of the Bible convinces me that Heaven will be richer in everything, including animal life. God said it has not entered in to the heart of man what He has in store for us. I love animals, and so does the one who created them. I even dream of seeing my beloved pets that I have lost in this life.

"This plan, which God will complete when the time is right, is to bring all creation together, everything in heaven and on earth, with Christ as head." Ephesians 1:10

Tatanka, a Bison Portrait in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

Tatanka, means Bison in the Native American Indian language. 
This big guy seems to be standing his ground, maybe chasing away rival males from his harem. My husband, younger son, and I traveled to the Midwestern states a few years back. A bison similar to this one decided to run a little on the main road- in the state park traffic. Thankfully, everyone knew to stop driving until he made up his mind where he wanted to go!

Tatanka is painted on an 8" x 8" x 0.50" stretched canvas, with all sides painted in a dark hue- making it easy to hang him unframed, or placed in your favorite frame.Prices are listed on my photo listing- on this blog or please visit my website @ sandracutrer.com for more information.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makes me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8.

Prima Donna, a Siamese cat portrait by Sandra R Cutrer

Prima Donna, or "First Lady"

If you watch a cats and dogs, especially, you can learn a lot about how life should be. They don't worry about living- or dying- just being alive for the moment is all they know. I've had many dogs and cats in my life, and each one had their own special place in my heart and in this world; each being  unique in so many fascinating ways!. Animals are full of love, giving those they love their all.

Whether you are a cat lover, dog lover, or both, animals are God's precious creatures. We should be kind to all, and appreciate each one's gift to mankind.

Prima Donna is painted on a 12" x 12" x 1" gallery wrapped canvas- all sides painted a dark hue, so there is no need to frame.

I love taking commissions, and have done several through accepting online photos of the animals. Please contact me with any questions about purchasing this piece, or having your own loving pet portrait created in oils! I will work with you on prices, and offer a layaway plan just right for you.
