I finally got 2 large paintings ready for the Springville Art Museum Spring Salon entries. The Saint Sheep is 48"x36" and my husband built a lovely frame for it. the photo shows the frame and how the painting floats in it. The Two White Wolves is not framed. It is 48"x32". It has a deep cradle and I painted it a warm medium gray to complement the painting. Both are oils. Sheep is on canvas and wolves are on board. These were the ones most people liked the best at the open studio..and happen to be some of my favorites too.
The Saint Sheep is not for sale. It does has conservancy issues! Someone kicked a hole in it while it was waiting to be hung at another show, then the paint began to peel! I have repaired it a few times and offer it as prints or cards on Red Bubble.com.
The wolves was a bit of a departure for me in color but not compositon. Actually the Sheep was a departure too..does this mean I should pursue what they are? I am not sure! I liked working big..but smaller sells and really an artist does have to pay for the paint!
Hi Kay! I'm thrilled to discover your blog! I especially love the sheep painting. It has a ethereal dreamy & peaceful quality to it... I will be back to see more!
ReplyDeleteI also love the sheep and am so sad that as a painting it is dying. Can you make another or is there no inspiration? It is lovely indeed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, I really just move on after a painting..but I do more sheep!
ReplyDeleteI love the sheep, i like the soul. Very nice work.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteKay, I love the white wolves. It has drama and integrity. It's a painting I could keep going back to and looking at.
