Ocean Breeze

Emotional Realism — what is it? Ocean Breeze epitomizes this term by its strong color, warm tones, sense of freedom and joy. One can hear the surf and feel the breeze as a young woman lifts her arms to the setting sun of the Pacific Ocean. Or, are we on the opposite coast of North America, and she greets the rising sun of a new day?

Ocean Breeze is available in the following ways:

• An original oil painting, canvas, gallery wrapped, 30 x 36 at Steve Henderson Fine Art

• A signed, limited edition print in both paper and gallery wrapped canvas, at Steve Henderson Fine Art

• An inspirational poster, with or without the saying, Rejoice! at Steve Henderson Fine Art

• An open edition photo art print or gallery wrapped canvas at Great Big Canvas

Fine art makes fine gifts.

Mother’s Day Gift Idea

Fine is a fine gift for mom, and Bold Innocence is a reminder of the beauty and grace of children. No matter how old those children get, in a mother’s heart, there is a memory of that small, bold, innocent person. And while that irritates us as we’re growing up and growing away, it’s a comfort as well, knowing that Mom remembers a part of us that we could too easily forget.

Bold Innocence — the original painting — is sold. The image is available as a signed, limited edition print through Steve Henderson Fine Art, as well as an inspirational poster.

Bold Innocence is also available as an open edition print through Great Big Canvas.

Give Us This Day — Grace

Inspirational posters by Steve Henderson Fine Art

More so than our daily bread, we all need grace to get through the day.

And just what is grace? Tolerance for our failings, understanding for our weaknesses, a hand held out to help us up when we fall. As we all need it, so we can give it to others.

Life’s Challenges — Laugh at Them

If you like the image but want a different saying, we can do that. Just follow the link on the image to the Steve Henderson Fine Art site.

When things go wrong, generally the first thing we do is get mad. Now getting mad isn’t such a bad thing — the energy derived from it impels us to make changes and move forward, but if we stay in the angry state, we lose the very movement that got us going in the first place.

And sometimes, there’s no set person or establishment to get mad at — and we find ourselves being angry all the time.

So, why not laugh? Laugh at Life’s Challenges talks about this more in depth, and I invite you to visit another site of mine, This Woman Writes.

The Laugh at Life’s Challenges inspirational poster is available at Steve Henderson Fine Art — for $10.95 you can start an art collection. Each poster is available with the saying, without the saying, or, if you purchase 5 or more of the same image by contacting us to customize the order, you can add your own saying and pass around your wisdom to four other people.

Feeling Small and Helpless in a Big World?

She’s small, she’s brave, she doesn’t fully comprehend how big the world is, but maybe that’s not a bad thing. If we truly understood how difficult things could be, would we continue? If even, like Frodo in The Lord of the Rings movie, we could look into a magic pool of water and see what might, or might not be, would we choose to do so?

Bold Innocence captures the confidence and insecurity in all of us. The lesson we can grasp from little children is that, while they fully recognize that they are small and weak and helpless, this never stops them from thinking that they can do anything.

Bold Innocence is available through Steve Henderson Fine Art as a signed limited edition print, both in paper and as gallery wrapped canvas (no frame needed; it’s ready to hang on your wall straight out of the shipment box). Shipping is free, and 6 months interest-free financing is available through PayPal’s Bill Me Later program. Contact Us, and we’ll walk you through the purchase process.

Poster — The Least of These Is Great Indeed

Children are so small and easily overlooked — maybe that’s why they’re extra noisy.

As we set up our list of New Year’s Resolutions that we know we’re going to break within the next three months (or weeks, maybe days), why not come up with one that is worth keeping, and realistically able to be kept:

Stop. Look down. Listen. Smile. Hold out your hand to the small person in your life and walk together, talking about important things, like The Story of Peter Rabbit and Goodnight Moon.

Seaside Story Poster — The Least of These Is Great Indeed — 11 x 14, matte finish — $10.95 plus $2.99 shipping through Steve Henderson Fine Art.
