Very soon, one of you will be receiving this 12 x 12 painting of White Geraniums, in the mail!
I painted it recently to celebrate Spring! It is truly a breath of fresh air to see God's creation budding forth in bloom! My soul is touched by His beauty! Captivated by His love which He has so lavishly bestowed upon us. Look closely and listen carefully. All around us nature sings His song. He's alive! He is good! He cares! Life can get pretty hectic and crazy, full of worries and fear. All of which can hide the Truth, but spend a time of solitude outdoors surrounded by His handiwork, enveloped by the symphony of nature and you will hear Him whispering, " I love you". It is a powerful message. The one we need most. It is a seed of hope that with His light and living water, springs forth into a new life.
I'll draw the winner next Friday, April 16th, by Random Counter.

Love this painting as much as all the others!
and I'm a follower!
Thanks Roxanne,
Me too!!
Roxanne,
I love your writing, painting, and sweet words. There are many times during the day I look at "Roxanne the Artist" and it alwasy brightens my day. This has been a bad week at Midland High for several teachers, including myself. Just yesterday I had a student threaten me. I'm filing charges. So sad this world we live in.
Les and I can't wait to come to Abilene for a visit!
Debbie
We have one of your paintings, but I would LOVE to have another to put in our house. This one is such a happy picture.

So pretty!!!!
You know I will jump on this. Thanks for you generosity. Also posting this giveaway on my blog.
Roxanne, you're the best! Love your painting and love every single word of what you've written, we serve an amazing God!
Ok, now were you serious about plein air painting in Abilene? I'm going to assume, yes. It would be so much fun to meet you and paint together...hmmm, bet you didn't think I'd take you up on this offer. If you are truly serious, can you e-mail me B&B recommendations...June-ish.
And by the way, I'm a follower! :-)
Roxanne! Want the painting!
Roxanne. I just became a follower. I want the painting!
Roxanne: I do not have a blog, but I do have a Facebook Page: Sayles Ranch Guesthouses (Become a Fan!) I posted the information about your giveaway contest on the wall of my Facebook Page. Does that count?
I want to win this - love it!!

Hi Roxanne, Love your blog. It is very uplifting, inspiring, and peaceful. Your art work is lovely and would probably do well in an Etsy store. It takes more time than I have to give right now. I have two sweet gran-babes that I spend most of my extra time with. I paint once or twice a week and it looks obvious that you get to paint more often, so you might have a steady supply for a store. It's easy to set up but if you need any help at all just send an email. Sinc, Sue
Howdy again, Sorry. Forgot to tell you to go look at my blog and tell me what you think.
Oh my gosh the picture is beautiful. It makes me smile when I look at it. Love the colors. Please enter my name in your wonderful giveaway.

You've done it again! It's beautiful! You really need to open an Etsy shop!

Hi, I'm delighted to find your blog through Vintage Sassy! Your paintings are gorgeous! I like the small sizes too! Yes, Nature declares God's gentle and glorious love! And, Amen we NEED it! I'd be giddy if your painting came to my house! Those are "my" colors. Bless you, Beth K.
Just started following your blog (introduced through a mutual friend)...and I love it! The painting is gorgeous. My mom was an artist and how ironic that her favorite flower was geraniums. She now resides in God's garden, but oh how I miss her. Thanks for stirring up a wonderful memory for me. I would be luckiest girl on this earth if I win!

Hi, Roxanne. It's theresa markham, friend of Lynnette's and aunt of Shannon that you helped years ago when she was at Midland College! Your pictures are so beautiful and your gift of painting is so amazing! And all for the Glory of God!
Do you post your paintings for sale on your blog? I'm new to blogging, so help me out! Heard Clints recent wedding so joyous! Congrats!
I love your blog.. for a lot of reasons. One, you are about my age I believe and i love the color turquoise (aqua)... My Dad (bless his memory) loved the color too. He painted his house that color for 50 years! His 1957 Chevy was white/turq, he even painted his ladder that color..
Blessings in Blogging to you.
Debb
