White Flower

Teresa Beyer

For me there is no escaping the lush sensuality of a flower. What else can I do? I have not other choice that to paint and translate this beautiful image.

As I plan my move the studio is the last to be packed ~ the first to be unpacked.

Preparing for my first ever garage sale ~ parting with much heavy baggage, starting new ~ fresh and light.

California here I come, right back where I started from ~ ~ ~

Celebration Mask


Celebration Mask
7 x 7
$65.

Celebrating my growing and regaining sense of appreciation and awe.  This sense of child like wonder, which was lost for a while, is now returning.

Enjoying

Sunsets
Laughter
city streets
country roads
enjoying life’s simple pleasures and
simply glorious treasures.

Appreciating familiar paintings I know so well ~ while exploring artistic expression and technique with different mediums, moods, colors and words ~ I so want to explore and learn, the artist. The Artist within celebrates.

Having weathered a crisis I am now celebrating and finding
A stronger
different
more evolved me

I am changing and growing into
a happier
healthier
And independent me

Freedom
To sort
Clean
Dis~card
Acquire
Move

Bringing order into my world again,
Creating my world and who and what I choose to surround myself with.

My World is Good.
The World is God.

Celebrate Joy
With me

giving YOU up


Giving YOU up ~

I feel freedom ~ a bell
that rings within me

no more waiting for
 
YOU to come home
only to leave again
no more waiting for
phone calls
that never come.

Ahhh creative energy is no longer wasted
in unframed paintings
and letters never mailed.

and then

I slept peacefully the night through
my home now is my sanctuary.

everyday I have some more happiness.
some more life.

and all it took was giving YOU up.

and that took quite a bit.

Nuestra Senora


Nuestra Senora
11 x 15
Watercolor
$125.
Teresa Beyer


A couple of weeks ago I decided to go for a bike ride along the RiverWalk. Well that section was closed and I was rerouted on to the streets. Yuck I haven’t really ridden with traffic in years. It turned out to be such a great experience I loved it. So I’m riding around and have no idea where I am and I find this great Mission.

I have a huge fondness for the Missions so this was like a treasure. I locked up my bike and went exploring, not knowing what to expect on my ride I had my phone, camera, skectchbook and water in my backpack.

The Mission was originally built in 1716 and served the Ainais tribe. In 1730 it moved to Austin and then to San Antonio in 1731. The church building was completed in 1755 and is the oldest unrestored stone church with the walls being 45inches thick in the United States.

The Mission was such a pleasure to explore. And now I have to head back to my car on my bike and have no idea where I am and how to get to my car. Thank goodness I had my phone and my GPS. Put my ear piece in and I was on my way.
