Angel's Flight~Abstract Celestial Skyscape by Marina Petro

Artist~Marina Petro, Saratoga Springs, NY USA
"Angel's Flight"
6x8 
Original oil painting on canvas-painted around all sides.
Purchase securely at my ETSY SHOP or EMAIL me for other purchasing options

Angel's Flight is a repost and I'll probably repost a few paintings this week.  I've reduced the price for this painting from $125 to $100. The frame is $29 if you would like it framed. Framed photo doesn't look as good as it does in real life...I've had a very busy week so far and haven't been able to play in my studio.

Angel's Flight is another example of intuitive painting straight from my very fertile imagination and ever growing skilled hands. Painting these small paintings has been such a wonderful opportunity to hone my skills...along with the classes I've been taking from master painter, Tom Vincent, for the past couple of years. Until then, I was primarily self taught, with the exception of a semester at Skidmore College and a few other workshops. 

So, this week has been busy. I had to prepare for a talk Monday night for SIMEN (Saratoga Integrative Medical Educational Network) on "Intuition-The Hidden Genius Within" I was delighted when 140 wonderful and highly receptive people showed up. I was told it was the largest group attending ever. Yesterday was full with many details needing to be taken care of and today was much of the same, including visiting the Saratoga Visitors Center to diagram their exhibit space for a one person show I am having there for the month of May...and on and on...Tomorrow I'll be going to Clifton Park to diagram another venue later this year...I'll keep you posted on both....and I'm heading to my studio as soon as I've finished posting here. What a relief that will be...

Today's Quotation:  "Since long I've held silence a remedy for harm."

Continuing My Latest Abstract Painting on Canvas

My latest abstract painting on canvas seemed too monochrome to me. I didn't want to add a lot of color because I felt that doing so would lose the free textural sense already there. So I used pale washes of blue, alizarin crimson, burnt umber, and yellow-orange. I also punched up the white and titanium, and added some yellow lines, feathering and spreading them with a brush. After that, I added more emphasis to some of the colored sections by outlining them in black lines.

Daffodil Daze By Bertie Brown

Daffodil Daze

original: 6"w x 8"h

Sophie’s First Daffodil

As Sophie and I

Went out for our walk

We sang silly songs

And giggled and talked

Till we came to a hill

And there by the way

Bloomed a lone daffodil

A perky yet mellow

Friendly little fellow

We bent down to sniff

The petals just a bit

But I must confess

Though our ‘sniffers’ did their best

We didn’t smell a thing

Except perhaps

A bit of Spring..........!

Bird Series - "Hummin Along" by Barbara Rudolph


"Hummin Along"

This new oil painting is on gallery wrapped canvas.  (24"x6"x2")  The border of my painting was created with various layers of texture to create the embossed design.  I then carefully apply my gold leaf over a bright red background.   The leaf is very fragile and will show cracks and breaks naturally, so I like to have that little tiny bit of red showing through.  I then apply several layers of paint over the gold leaf to create an old world look.  Once the border was complete, I painted my hummingbird in flight in oil.  I call it "Hummin Along."

Oil painting of black labrador retriever by Anne Zoutsos

Black Labrador - 7" x 5" oil on hardboard/masonite

It's been a while since I painted a black labrador and so here is one - no champion this time, just a dog with a lovely face and expression - so very sweet.

When this painting is sold I will make a donation of 10% from the profits to Noah's Bark to help them in their efforts at finding homes for unwanted dogs. Probably the best place to see what they do is their facebook page here - http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Noahs-Bark-Animal-Rescue/139298188002?ref=ts

This painting is offered at auction with no reserve! please click here to bid (or just to see details)

On request this was changed to buy it now for £67 plus £5 shipping

SOLD 

This painting is straight off the easel and will need to dry for several days before shipping but since the auction is a 7 day listing, this should work out just about right!!

Floral Still Life, Orange Marmalade, Kim Blair

We are planning to see the movie, 'Alice in Wonderland' this Friday, and I can hardly wait!
While thinking about what to call this painting my intuition said to pick up our copy of the Alice in Wonderland book and leaf through it.  As I skimmed the first few pages my eye spied the words 'Orange Marmalade', and I knew that was to be the name of this painting.  Alice is describing what she sees as she is falling down the rabbit hole... cupboards, bookshelves, maps and pictures... she took a jar from one of the shelves as she passed: it was labeled 'Orange Marmalade', but to her disappointment it was empty. 

The sun creates highlights on the crinkled edges and in the creases of this poppy making the petals resemble the bits of orange peel you find in marmalade... sometimes the rind can be bitter and sometimes it can be sweet.  
I think that Alice would like this orange marmalade.

Connoisseur's - Wine Painting, Party for Two by k Madison Moore

Connoisseurs - Party for Two


SOLD


12 x 12 inches
Oil on Canvas

Since Red is my signature color, my favorite color, I always try to include it in every painting I do
somewhere if I can. Red, black and white are always so striking and brilliant together so I really had a great time painting this one, especially with capturing her flirty attitude.

The inspiration for this painting is from a redecorating project my husband and I are doing to our home. We have a giant wrap around sofa that takes up a large area in our room. We have decided to reupholster the sofa a warm Red. In doing this we will now need new paintings for the room as well.
For a very long wall behind the sofa there will be three paintings from  my Connoisseur Series that will all have a red sofa or chair in the painting. Connoisseur's Private Party may be one of them that I will recreate. Just had to try it. What a fun project!

LANDSCAPE, plein air, oil - "A Walk In The Park" by Marian Fortunati

"A Walk In The Park"9x12 Oil on Raymar Canvas

It's spring break and Tyler is at home this week.  When he's around I like to spend time at home with him and with my husband, but I did manage to slip out for a bit on Sunday to watch my friend and former art teacher, Johanna Spinks, do a demo for the Valley Artists Guild.   Johanna  is a terrific gal and a wonderful artist.   She brought a friend with her to be the model.   Johanna just did a fabulous job of not only entertaining, informing AND painting a terrific demonstration head study!  I'm glad I went.  I got to see lots of my friends that I often don't get to talk with.  To top it all off, I won the raffle and was able to take home a beautiful head study that Johanna had generously donated to the group.

Today we're in San Diego to visit my youngest daughter, but for a bit yesterday, I finished up a plein air study I had started early last week.   I tried to "play with paint" and did have fun, but I think I lost the simplicity I should have had if I wanted to achieve what I should have on this one.   Balboa Park in the San Fernando Valley is alive with pretty cherry trees all in bloom.  They are really gorgeous in real life.   Perhaps a bit more practice with trees in in order, however.

I'll try to take some pictures while I'm down here... There will be no time for painting, but it is absolutely gorgeous today.  The weather man says it will be raining soon, but perhaps we'll have some outside time tomorrow as well.

In the meantime... have a wonderful Easter or Passover or celebration of spring.

First Two Stages in New Abstract Painting

Lately I've been swinging wildly from one approach to the next in my abstract painting: grid structure, overall pattern, bold strokes, and in my latest: finding freedom. Maybe it's because I'm bipolar, and used to mood swings, but a new painting is often the antidote to a previous one.

Stage 1:

Canvas85500 Canvas #85, 30" x 40"

I continued to work in a loose manner. I painted with a brush using acrylic directly from the tube, as well as mixtures thinned with water and gloss medium. I drew lines with brown and black, brushing them over to soften the effect. I worked over the whole canvas, letting the details and movement build in a natural way. Stage two:
