Living Today By Artist Bonnie Mohr – Coming Soon

After more than two years of many thoughts and ideas – this painting is complete and I am ready to show it for the first time!  Living Today is my sequel to

Living Life.  I have created this painting based on my own personal desire to try and live each day this way. I believe this image will mean something different to everyone as we each walk through life leaving a unique footprint.  My hope is that Living Today will be an inspiration to help you get the very best living from each day of your life!  Living Today will be heading for press within the next month.

 

“Living Today”

Today is a gift.  Embrace it with joy and anticipation…realize the possibilities. It beckons you towards your destination in life. Be at peace – you are exactly where you are meant to be at this moment. God has carefully chosen the people, events, joys and challenges on your path today. The things you will encounter are stepping stones of what is to come.  Make the most of today. Focus on “the present” – you will see and appreciate things you might otherwise miss. Follow your heart – search to find your purpose in life and you will find meaning and happiness. Use your talents, do your best, contribute.  Make a difference, because you can. Be passionate about your journey – sing, dance, laugh, and love as you go.  Give praise and allow time for prayer. The promise of tomorrow begins with the endeavors of today.  Do not let the fast-forward pace of the world deprive you from savoring “the now”.  Seek things that fill you with love and bring you joy. Have faith, it fosters hope – it makes the difference.  Believe, with God all things are possible. Live well – live today, for it is a gift.

He is a member of Ducks Unlimited, The Ruffed Grouse Society, Safari Club International, Pheasants Forever and The Adventurers Club. Scott has shown his work at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson International “Birds In Art” exhibition several times, designed conservation stamps for the National Wildlife Federation and has donated his art to dozens of organizations dedicated to conservation and the preservation of wildlife.

We are extremely excited to announce we are now carrying Jerry Gadamus art.   We strive to offer you this great art at a great price.   Each print is hand signed and numbered limited edition print.   Here is some history on Jerry Gadamus.

Jerry Gadamus is recognized internationally for the way he achieves unbelievable detail with his airbrush. It is called “freehand airbrushing”, and is done without the aide of stencils or paintbrush. It contributes to a painting style that personifies his acclaimed reputation as an outdoor painter. His love of outdoor sports has taken him far and wide in the wilderness. Each year Jerry joins his friends on a painting and photography trip into the Western States, where they study the abundant wildlife and paint the mountainous landscapes.

Jerry graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. His art has appeared on the covers of countless magazines and books, including Wildlife Art News and U.S. Art. He has won countless awards for his paintings, and his work is a familiar sight at many wildlife fund-raising auctions. Jerry has been juried into the prestigious “Birds of Art” exhibition at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin, five times and twice was selected to go on the national and international tours. Two of his works are in the museum’s permanent collection.
