Spring Watercolor Collection
Pencil Drawing, Ink Completion, then Watercolor Wash
A compilation of persons, pets, places things, road trips of my life. My connections, my hobbies, talents, my road trips. My home...... my weekends, my friends, their pets, their lives in connection with mine. Representations of MEMORABLE FOREVER fun times, sad times, and the glimmer of hope commonly worked into my tornado oil and acrylic on canvas works, always a glimmer light...of hope. The watercolor over pencil and ink renderings represent daily life in 2025. My life. My monumental successes...my spectacular failures...what made me smile...even laugh!
Capturing epic emotions of happiness, intrigue, humor, and, unfortunately....staggering grief.
Knowing that WE ARE ALL in the same boat together (called simply..."Humanity").
...also knowing that in a hundred years from now, we will all have passed away. What matters today, is the simple reminder to always be thankful to God for this life and all it presents to you....stellar successes....spectacular failures...and everything in between.
It is our command from "the Handbook". Philippians 4:6.
I will always have a "glass half full" mindset....even if my glass is broken with grief.
It's the only glass issued to me...and it's got to last at least 95 years!
Created with daily and soulful observations and challengers of everyday life, I paint what I see in this broken world. But as I have truly learned, to take heart:
In the timeless words of Jesus Christ:
"I have said these things to you that you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart....I have overcome the world."
John 16:33

Who I am NOW.
Focused on retiring. My Art. My Classical Piano...and above all....My Faith.
You don't have to subscribe and accept my faith, but appreciate the artwork. My motivation is now from a different source: My faith.
In Memoriam. A man of peace.
A peace so lacking today.
Tab on this piece of artwork. 2 hours to complete...broke down in tears while completing this.
Heartbroken.

Scott Hepper
10 years in the making, over 2,500 hours of rehearsing, re-writing, re-playing,

This is also my personal testimony to the world the power of Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, and to glorify our Father, GOD.
There will be no charge to your church. Only a donation to any of the community outreach programs it may have.
Your church MUST be Bible based.
