THE OUTDOOR ARTIST . . .

ORIGINAL ART & POETRY BY PAUL T. & KATHY BOECHER©

This painting shows the majesty of springtime. Even in the darkness of dawn’s early light, there is beauty to be found. God’s attention is awake at all hours. Whenever we need reassurance, we can find Him. When we need someone to lean on, He provides broad shoulders. When solutions to life’s problems seem impossible, He helps you find them. Springtime is like the opening of a new door. You never know what’s on the other side until you open it. Treasure the glory that God provides through the miracle of nature.

A grove of trees, a cloud filled sky, a bridge crossing an enticing path,

All set in the midst of nature,

The call of spring, opens the doors and windows to new opportunities,

Fresh, clean air,

Exciting new shades of blue and green to add to the pallet,

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets,

All provided by the Creator of all of it,

Anywhere the road takes you becomes the perfect destination,

When you’re an artist, your paintbrush,

Your imagination and

Your skill find it,

When you know all about color and light,

Shadows and definition,

Negative space,

Your hand responds to the invitation.

You find beauty in all things,

Because you take the time to enjoy,

To see the details of life,

The important things,

Not the clutter,

You sort through the garbage,

You sift through the darkness,

You unleash your inner beast,

You find the beauty,

When you’re an artist.

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

  1. So true Kathy, the purpose of painting is to teach us to see.

  2. Such meaningful expressions from both of you and Paul. Colleen and I are dog sitting for a few days so we have migrated get to our daughter’s nearby home. My early morning coffee and devotional time was blessed with a clear dawn sky rising above the trees. Our Creator enjoys sharing these moments of His grace.

      Thanks for your kind observations. It has turned very cold again here. Wind is making it feel like 16. Next week close to 70 again. I’m looking out my window and all I see is a lot of necessary cleanup ahead. She I guess I should be grateful for small blessings. I can stay inside today!
