A Bible Art Book from Genesis to Revelation

In a remarkable two-year journey, artist Mindi Oaten painted through the entire Bible, creating 66 unique pieces—one for each book of Scripture. Partnering with the ministry Time to Revive, her artwork became a visual companion to reviveSCHOOL, a two-year study through the Word of God.

From the very beginning in Genesis, Mindi felt God whisper a directive that would define her work: "Paint the Garden." This thread of the Garden—God’s presence, beauty, and redemption—runs through every painting, weaving together the symbolism and elements she was led to include in each piece.

Now, in Along the Garden Path, Mindi shares the detailed notes and spiritual insights behind every painting, inviting readers to step into the vivid imagery of God’s Word and gather the fragrance of Christ in His fullness.

Featured in this 8.5 x 11" paperback book:

  • paintings of each book of the Bible
  • corresponding flower painting 
  • detailed notes of each element in the paintings
  • my sketch of each painting - from my personal journal through the project
  • my artist reflection of each painting 
  • reflective questions

Artwork Care & Materials

Fine art canvas prints

Mindi’s fine art canvas prints are reproductions of her original paintings printed on artist-quality canvas. Sizes vary by artwork, from smaller pieces to larger statement sizes. Unless the product option specifically says Stretched Canvas Print, canvas prints are shipped unstretched.

Unstretched canvas prints can be framed, mounted, or professionally stretched by your local framer. Because each artwork has its own proportions, available sizes vary; order from the size and format shown on the individual product page.

Need help choosing a size or format? Contact Mindi Oaten Art or visit the Frequently Asked Questions.

Stretched canvas prints

A Stretched Canvas Print is a fine art canvas print stretched over an internal support frame, creating a ready-to-display presentation without first visiting a framer. It can be hung as-is or placed inside a decorative outer frame.

Stretched canvas sizes vary by artwork. If the size you need is not listed, contact the studio to ask whether a custom stretched size is available.

Custom sizes & custom art print orders

Mindi Oaten Art may be able to create an approved custom fine art canvas print in a size not listed on the product page. Custom print orders are quoted individually based on the artwork, final dimensions, proportions, and finishing requirements.

Custom sizes must respect the proportions of the original painting, and some dimensions may require cropping. The studio will confirm what works visually before the order is finalized.

For a custom print size, contact Mindi Oaten Art. For an entirely new original artwork, visit the Custom Painting & Commission page. You can also review the FAQ.

Original paintings on canvas

Original paintings on canvas are one-of-a-kind works created by Mindi. Many are acrylic on canvas; the exact medium and dimensions are listed on each product page. Purchasing an original means purchasing the physical original artwork, not a reproduction.

Display original canvas paintings indoors in a stable environment, away from prolonged direct sunlight, fireplaces, heating vents, bathrooms, and major humidity or temperature changes. Dust gently with a clean, soft, dry cloth or artist’s brush; never use water, sprays, solvents, or household cleaners on the painted surface.

Framing varies by piece. Some paintings can be displayed unframed, while others may suit a floating or traditional frame. Unless the listing says otherwise, framing is not included. Browse available Original Paintings or contact the studio with a framing or care question.

Original works on paper

Some original works on paper include watercolour and other paper-based pieces; the exact medium is identified on the product page. For long-term preservation, frame them behind glass or acrylic using archival, acid-free matting and backing, with UV-protective glazing when possible.

Keep paper originals away from direct sunlight and high humidity, and do not let the painted surface touch standard glass directly; use a mat or spacer for separation.

For framing advice, contact Mindi Oaten Art. Additional ordering information is available in the FAQ.

Displaying, handling & long-term care

Displaying: keep artwork indoors and away from prolonged direct sunlight, excessive moisture, smoke, and rapid temperature changes.

Handling: use clean, dry hands and hold prints or originals by the edges whenever possible. Support larger pieces evenly with two hands.

Cleaning: use only a soft, dry cloth or clean artist’s brush. Do not apply water, glass cleaner, oils, sprays, or household cleaners directly to printed or painted surfaces.

Framing: archival, acid-free materials and UV-protective glazing are recommended for works on paper and can also help protect fine art prints. Canvas works should be framed or stretched appropriately for the specific piece.

For a specific artwork, custom size, framing choice, or care concern, contact Mindi Oaten Art. You can also visit the Frequently Asked Questions or learn about commissioning a custom painting.

Superb!

This book was all I expected and more. I was so pleased to be able to meet her at the Museum of the Bible after seeing all 66 of the paintings. They were spectacular and she was so kind. The exhibit was very impressive and seeing her thought process in the notes made it even more special. ❤️😊

Such a beautiful book

Such a beautiful book. I heard about the paintings from an email I receive from Pastor Jim Garlow and was able to watch his podcast where the artist, Mindi Oaten, gave a very brief description of the symbolism in each painting. I was so thrilled to find out she had produced a book with the paintings and so much more detail. This is a book I will treasure for years to come.
