Painting - Oil On Canvass
Description
For over twenty years I moved this oil painting around from one place to the next. I was trying to forget the sad circumstances under which I painted this beautiful scene of McWay Falls in Big Sur, California...a National Park scene that overlooks the Pacific Ocean.
Finally this painting came out of hiding when I chose to no longer hide the pain of my past mistakes and broken relationships! It came out of hiding when I chose to share God's love through it all...
I see now that my past mistakes are buried in the depths of His ocean of love. So when I look into these clear blue waters I now see His reflection of Grace instead of past mistakes.♥
