Your Feedback

“Very pretty! Funny story…..I had a few poppies with beautiful flowers growing in my backyard when 1 day, my next door neighbor comes knocking on my door wanting the poppy pods. I obliged.” — @HepflDesigns, TRUTH Social

“I appreciate the gentle blue that you made for the background. The poppies are interesting shapes, it’s not difficult to understand why a painter, yourself, chose this subject. A good painting for people to show in a room where they relax, the colors are all easy on the eyes.” — @JosephChristian33, Gab

‘Trees at Dusk’ painting is an artwork of orange, yellow, and dark brown oils on a canvas. The trees become silhouetted as the last rays of sunlight fade away. It was inspired by the view from my front door, which looks out onto the woods across the street.

Artist Comments

‘Lightning Strikes’ painting is inspired my fascination for the weather. I love standing on my porch watching a storm roll in. I love watching lightning bolts flash across the sky. And I especially love the rainbow that appears after the storm, because it reminds me of God’s promise from long ago. (See the Scriptures below.)

Weather is a powerful, tremendous force, and when unleashed it can be very destructive. Do I enjoy the destruction that sometimes happens from all that power? No way, no how. But because of God’s covenant promise, the storm gives me a sensation that He is nearby and watching over me. I sense His presence and I am not afraid.

—Teresa Bernard

Genesis 9:12-16 (NASB)

12 God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations;
13 I have set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall serve as a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth.
14 It shall come about, when I make a cloud appear over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,
15 and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 When the rainbow is in the cloud, then I will look at it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”

Artist Comments

I used a free photo from Pixabay.com as a reference for this painting. Pixabay offers an online collection of copyright-free images that are available for download and use without needing attribution. Occasionally, the website inspires my artwork.

For the “Blue Shutters” piece, I chose a photo taken on the Greek island of Karpathos. I altered the composition to avoid creating an exact copy of the photograph. Unfortunately, the photo has been removed from the Pixabay website, otherwise I would provide a link for comparison.

Title: The Study
Size: 14" w x 11" h
Canvas Type: Traditional Stretched Canvas
Frame: Unframed
Signed: On the front 
COA: Signed Certificate of Authenticity

A still life painting featuring vintage items typically found in a home office or study. It has a vintage feel due to the single-color palette used.

This one-of-a-kind painting depicts a still life of vintage objects typical of a home office or study. Atop an antique wooden desk, there lies an arrangement consisting of a stack of hardcover books, a feather quill pen, a candlestick with a tall candle, a pair of spectacles, and a glass of wine. The monochromatic (single-color) palette used in this painting gives it a vintage look. The painting is signed in the lower left side by artist Teresa Bernard.

The Study painting will need to be mounted in a frame before it is shown because the edges of the traditional stretched canvas are unpainted or raw. This still life oil painting comes with an official Certificate of Authenticity (COA) with your purchase.

The copyright watermark ©️ teresabernardart.com is used exclusively for online purposes and does not appear on the original canvas artwork.

Artist Comments

‘The Study’ is the first painting I’ve done using a monochromatic color scheme. What this means is that I deliberately chose to restrict the number of paint colors I used when doing this painting. The sepias I chose to use in this still life give it a vintage look. This would be great wall décor for an office, study, den, or even a man cave.

—Teresa Bernard

What exactly is monochromatic?

A monochromatic color scheme is based on variations of a single hue, creating a palette through different shades, tints, and tones of that color.

©️ teresabernardart.com is a copyright watermark and is used exclusively online. It is not on the physical canvas artwork.

Artist Comments

The Sea of Galilee is a large freshwater lake located in northeast Israel, between the Golan Heights and the Galilee region. The Jordan River is its primary source of water. The lake is approximately 13 miles long and 8 miles wide.

My love of God’s word and Bible readings about Jesus inspired this painting of the famous Sea of Galilee. Israel is very important to me because it is home to God’s chosen people. I’ve never been to Israel, but it’s somewhere I’d like to visit someday. This painting was composed using a reference photo from the “Pictorial Library of Bible Lands.” The photographer, Todd Bolen, graciously permitted me to use his photographs for any of my Bible land paintings.

According to Matthew 4:13-22, this historic biblical location is where Jesus began His ministry and called His first disciples. This passage tells us Jesus left Nazareth and went to Capernaum. While walking along the Sea of Galilee, He called the first four of His disciples Simon (also called Peter), Andrew, James, and John.

Your Feedback

“I love it and looked at the site. The “Sea of Galilee at Capernaum” put me in mind of something by Turner or some of the Hudson River schools. Wonderful stuff.” — josisenberg, SciFi & Fantasy Writers, Gab

“I really like your paintings–the portrait of your husband is very unusual in composition and the backlighting–wish I could see it in real life. Another [painting] that really caught my eye especially is the Sea of Galilee at Capernaum–the light in the sky is particularly indicative of something spiritual, even if one didn’t know a thing about the religious significance of the place.” — Elena M., Columbia, MD

The original canvas painting does not have the copyright watermark ©️ teresabernardart.com.

Artist Comments

Monument Valley in Utah, often referred to as the “Valley of the Rocks,” is recognized as one of the natural wonders of the world and is arguably the most iconic representation of the American Old West. The valley has been a preferred setting for Western films for many years. Its isolated red mesas, dramatic spires, and sandstone buttes, set against a backdrop of a vast, sandy desert, have been captured on film and in photographs numerous times throughout history.

Called Tsé Bii’ Ndzisgaii (Valley of the Rocks) by the Navajo, this famous valley lies in the southern part of Utah near the Arizona border within the Navajo Nation Reservation. When you first approach the area, these rock “monuments” will take your breath away. The eerie rock formations make you feel like you’ve been transported to another planet. It is truly one of the most majestic places on earth.

The first time I visited Monument Valley National Park, I knew right away I’d be doing a painting of this beautiful valley. Indeed, I have created multiple paintings of this location. I also have memories of several paintings I did of this place when I was a young student of art studying art under my dad, a professional oil painting artist. My dad loved painting this location too and produced several oil paintings of it himself. The whereabouts of these paintings remain uncertain after they were sold to art collectors and local businesses in the small town where we lived.

“Still Life with Clay Pottery” is a monochromatic artwork depicting common household items from a typical Iron Age (1200-586 B.C.) kitchen in Israel or Jordan.

Artist Comments

In the summer of 1999, my husband Robert and I navigated his 36-foot sailboat along the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) from Florida to Virginia. Robert, a military serviceman, was transferring from Naval Air Station Jacksonville to Naval Station Norfolk. The journey presented us with many fascinating sights along the waterway, offering ample chances to capture photographs for my future paintings. “Along The ICW,” depicting a stranded shrimp boat, was inspired by a photo I snapped on that voyage.

—Teresa Bernard

About The ICW

The Intracoastal Waterway is a 3,000-mile waterway network comprising inland rivers, channels, and canals along the eastern and southeastern coasts of the United States. It is split into the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The waterway includes both man-made canals and natural water bodies like inlets, saltwater rivers, bays, and sounds.

The ICW stretches from Boston, MA, down the Atlantic Seaboard, around Florida’s southern tip, and along the Gulf Coast to Brownsville, TX. Its main function is to offer a secure and navigable route for light commercial and personal pleasure vessels, providing a safer alternative to the perils of open sea travel.
