As I ventured downstairs to make lunch for the first time as a mother of two, I was thinking wild thoughts about the craziness babies bring. I was thinking, "Who in their right mind would choose to have a baby. Considering the money and time they require. Considering all the lost opportunities, adventures not taken, ambitions set aside as the world practically stops turning." I thought the idea must come from on high, divine intervention to override the insanity of voluntarily asking for all this. <br /><br />At about this point, I set a sandwich in front of my darling daughter and she looked at me up through her thick long lashes with her big blue eyes. She didn't say or do anything, just looked at me for a second. It hit me so hard, it took my breath away and brought instant tears to my eyes. It was as if the windows of heaven opened through her eyes and poured out its love and light on me. All I could choke out was, "Oh. OK." My question was answered and I understood completely. <br /><br />Children are a precious gift. It is an honor and our privilege to be their custodian for a time. I want to remember this every day. I want to feel this every time they look at me. I want to give them so much love and treat them with the kindness that they deserve as children of our Heavenly Father. <br /><br />To serve our children is one of the greatest gifts God has given us. I hope I captured that remembrance in this painting that I am calling "Windows of Heaven".<br /><br /></p> <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>18"w x 16"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>75</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Available at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/Windows_of_Heave_4f779afbb55d5.jpg" alt="Windows of Heaven" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span itemprop="price" class="productPrice">$395.00</span> <meta itemprop="priceCurrency" content="USD" /> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 19:02:03 +0100 /store/emily-mcphie/tortoise.html <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>10"w x 12"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>75</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Available at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/resized/phoca_thumb_m_McPhie_Tortoise.jpg" alt="Tortoise" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span itemprop="price" class="productPrice">$195.00</span> <meta itemprop="priceCurrency" content="USD" /> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 18:26:56 +0100 /store/emily-mcphie/the-key-to-happiness.html <p>"Still 'round the corner there may wait a new road or a secret gate." - J.

Of course, I couldn't attain that simple perfection - the paintings ended up as a metaphor for the troubles and realities of life, which can turn and bite your head off at any moment. But even with the knowledge of this fact, we can be content and find peace like these little girls. We're not afraid of the lion; we'll still remember what to buy at the grocery store."</p> <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>12"w x 16"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>100</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Available at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/resized/phoca_thumb_m_McPhie_Serena_and_Her_Lion.jpg" alt="Serena And Her Lion" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span itemprop="price" class="productPrice">$295.00</span> <meta itemprop="priceCurrency" content="USD" /> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 18:26:56 +0100 /store/emily-mcphie/ruby-rose-in-time-out.html <p>Like Venus rising from the foaming sea, Ruby Rose stands stolidly on her rock and waits. "Ruby Rose was born as I thought about how hard it can be to communicate," says artist Emily McPhie, "especially for children. I thought about what it must be like to be in time out, to feel so misunderstood and isolated and that those ten minutes are never ever going to end. As we get older, we learn more words and how to better share our feelings, but I find that once in a while that misunderstood, isolated, time-out feeling creeps up on us all. It's then that we're glad we're finally old enough to tell time and that ten minutes isn't so long after all." The sweetly inspired works of Emily McPhie make a perfect addition to any nursery, office, bedroom or living area and the ideal gift for the new mother in your life.</p> <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>24"w x 14"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>100</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Available at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/resized/phoca_thumb_m_McPhie_Ruby_Rose_In_Timeout.jpg" alt="Ruby Rose In Time Out" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span itemprop="price" class="productPrice">$495.00</span> <meta itemprop="priceCurrency" content="USD" /> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 18:26:56 +0100 /store/emily-mcphie/pirouettes-and-pachyderms.html <p>"Life, as they say, is not about the destination, but the journey," says artist Emily McPhie.

From her first tooth to her first date, the milestones in every child's life seem to come more quickly with each passing day. Every parent can remember the first time they took the training wheels off their child's bicycle and watched their little one ride away, feeling a mixture of pride and apprehension.<br /><br />The beautiful autumn scene in Emily McPhie's newest Fine Art Limited Edition One If by Land tells such a story. Fall has come to the path through the park and as the little girl rides by, the heavy leaves fall from their trees. It is a time of change, a time of remembering the treasures of the past and of looking forward to the future.<br /><br />Emily McPhie's dreamy paintings are touched with the tenderness of young motherhood. Her portraits of women and children convey universal messages of love, determination and hope.<br /><br /></p> <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>13"w x 21"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>100</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Available at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/resized/phoca_thumb_m_McPhie_One_if_By_Land.jpg" alt="One If By Land" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span itemprop="price" class="productPrice">$395.00</span> <meta itemprop="priceCurrency" content="USD" /> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 18:26:55 +0100 /store/emily-mcphie/crocodile.html <p>While the innocence and simplicity of childhood may be something to fondly remember, life's daily realities are often far more complicated for adults.

"Not just knowing the difference, but making the right decision and having the conviction and confidence to stick to it. The figure in pink is very sure of herself and her choice; but she's also struck a balance - she's not all in red and she's not all in white. She understands that the right decision is also about finding balance in all things and following it, and that there may not even be one right decision. To quote J.R.R.

"I gesso'ed watercolor paper, drew with Conte and colored pencil, a little oil paint, crackled and glazed. The idea here is about taking things apart and putting them together."<br /> <br />There's a relationship between a branch and an axe but in this pair there is a deliberate intensity about the branch and the axe is a bit taken aback. With paper and scissors, paper seems to be gracefully offering and scissors is taking a second look, perhaps reconsidering the mission. The feminine, marionette-like poses of these figures belie the gravity of decisions hanging in the balance.

The solemn, sweet little girl in Birdcage, for example, would look perfectly at home with a collection of early American paintings. "Birds often represent the soul or spirit in my paintings," says the artist. The birdcage itself is empty, but if we look closely we can find the bird printed on the little girl's dress has her soul broken free just as the bird? Birdcage invites us to look deeper into our own hearts and imaginations to find the answer.<br /><br /></p> <table style="width: 75%;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Size:</strong></td> <td>9"w x 12"h</td> <td style="width: 20%;"></td> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 50px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>Edition:</strong></td> <td>75</td> </tr> <tr style="height: 20px;"> <td style="padding-left: 1px; width: 65px; color: #89afd3;"><strong>InformArt:</strong></td> <td>Not Listed</td> <td></td> <td style="color: #89afd3"><strong>Status:</strong></td> <td>Sold out at publisher</td> </tr> </tbody> </table><img src="http://www.hiddenridgegallery.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/resized/phoca_thumb_m_McPhie_Birdcage.jpg" alt="Birdcage" vspace="5" hspace="5" align="left" border="0" /><br />Price: <span class="productPrice">$0.00</span> Emily McPhie Sat, 31 Mar 2012 18:26:55 +0100
