A young girl in a red dress sits beside a pond filled with koi in this delightful painting. She pokes her hand into the water and playfully teases the fish.

A one-of-a-kind painting of a young blond-haired girl wearing a red dress, sitting beside a pond. She extends her hand into the water, interacting playfully with a group of koi fish. Positioned with her back facing the onlooker, she could be anyone’s child, allowing the identity to be determined by the viewer. Cattails are growing behind her, and lily pads dot the pond’s surface in the foreground. The painting is signed by artist Teresa Bernard.

Girl in The Red Dress is canvas art hand-painted on gallery wrap canvas; it does not require a frame before hanging on the wall.

Artist Comments

The painting of a young girl in a red dress was enjoyable to create because I used a model who was somewhat familiar to me. She’s the granddaughter of a high school friend. My friend gave me permission to use a photo of her granddaughter as a reference for this artwork.

For the most part, the painting reflects the reference photo, but I introduced lily pads, koi fish, and cattails. These additions were made to enhance the composition’s appeal and to enrich the narrative depicted by the painting.

Artist Comments

‘Gone Surfing’ is a simple yet evocative phrase that captures the essence of escaping to the waves. It conjures images of sun-kissed beaches, saltwater spray, and the thrill of riding a board across the ocean’s surface. Whether you’re a seasoned surfer or a daydreamer, those two words encapsulate the freedom and adventure that await in the vast blue expanse.

When I was a young girl growing up in Texas, my family did not live anywhere near the coast. I’d watch reruns of TV shows and movies starring Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, and other teen idols who surfed the waves, and I would daydream about the thrill of surfing myself. Had we lived near the beach, I might have been the teenage girl portrayed in this painting. Those days have passed, and I never learned to surf, but if I had…

Artist Comments

‘Sisters in Lavender’ painting is one of my favorite works and was a joy to paint. The calm, serene, and tranquil feeling one gets viewing this artwork is particularly appealing to me. The figures in the composition are no one specifically, just two young ladies who could be sisters enjoying an afternoon in a vast field of lavender. I can imagine the scent of lavender wafting through the air, filling their noses with a sweet aroma as they stroll through the beautiful lavender, creating some treasured memories.

Artist Comments

 Hot air balloons, those majestic vessels of the sky, evoke a sense of wonder and freedom. As they ascend, the world below transforms into a patchwork quilt of colors and contours.

Every summer the city of Longview, Texas hosts the Great Texas Balloon Race. Dubbed “The longest-running hot-air balloon event in Texas,” this three-day festival brings professional hot air balloon pilots from all over the world to compete in the event.

According to its website, the event began in 1978 as an advertising gimmick to promote the opening of Longview’s new mall. From there, it “ballooned” into the three-day festival spectators enjoy today.

Our family attended this event one year and I got to get up close and watch these balloons as they inflated and took to flight. What a spectacular sight it was! Up, Up and Away painting was inspired by this festival’s celebration of hot air balloons.

—Teresa Bernard

“Very fun subject. While looking at this painting, I was thinking of the awe that little children of 4 or 5 years must experience. Since little children enjoy the handheld colorful balloons a lot, I would like to see their expressions with a sky full of these very colorful giants.” — @JosephChristian33, Gab

Artist Comments

The significance of a young boy and his dog playing by the lake transcends mere moments of leisure. It weaves together threads of nostalgia, companionship, and timeless connection.

‘A Boy and His Dog’ evokes the joy of life’s simplest moments when we were young, and everything held wonder. Sometimes life gets so complicated that it’s nice to stop and remember the days of our youth.

When my children were young, like the little boy in this painting, I loved to watch their fascination with the simplest things in life. Things that, as an adult, I often take for granted. Sometimes it’s nice to slow down and enjoy simple pleasures like this again.
