Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen.

Mark Twain




The portraitist does not have to represent the truth of change — only to give stability to one beautiful moment.

George Eliot
(paraphrased)









Proverbs 3:5,6

(5) Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
(6) In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.































The Ultimate Heirloom

Oil paintings need no introduction. Properly cared for, they last for centuries. While Brown-tones
and Watercolors are exciting and affordable options for many collectors, there is just something indescribably special about a portrait painted in oil. You can almost smell the linseed oil and turpentine from the artist's studio now! From miniatures to life-size... for over the mantelpiece
or for the hall of collegiate or corporate presidents, an original oil by Bette Rodgers makes a statement indeed!
