Jay on the Water
Oil on canvas, 2025
By Parsons
There’s a quiet kind of peace that settles in when the sun hangs low and the only sound is the lap of water against the boat. This painting captures one of those moments—a simple evening on a Minnesota lake with my good friend Jay.
It’s not about the fish or the cast. It’s about stillness. Friendship. The kind of connection that doesn’t need words. Just water, light, and time shared.
In a world that moves fast, Jay on the Water is a reminder to slow down, be present, and hold close the people and places that ground us.
