Wonderful Christmas Gift Idea — Calvinist Still Life by TJ Lynde!

If you haven’t checked out Taylor Lynde’s fine art store lately, you are really missing out! (Especially if you are looking for a stunning, thoughtful, and extremely inexpensive gift for someone you love. TJ offers these smaller-sized paintings on ebay to help those of us who can’t afford gallery-sized works still get to have gallery-quality fine art in our homes.)

Please click through and check them all out — there are a number of Montana scenes that are just lovely.

But my favorite is this Calvinist Still Life. (I wish I could put a photo of it in here! TJ & Samara—if you read this, email me a photo, OK? 😉 )

In the notes for this still life, TJ writes:

“You often hear the question, “how could a good God send anyone to hell?”,

Let Eve’s forbidden fruit, the Scriptures and a flask of whisky remind us of the real question- “Why should a good, just and transcendent God allow any of us wretches to hang with Him at all?”

Thanks Lord for all i have, You are the best of company, in all of life, this’n and the one to come.”

Thanks for making the world a more beautiful place, Taylor, by using your gifts to love God and love your neighbor.

We appreciate you!
