I pull my painting subjects from my own life -  what I dream about and experience as I move through the world. The animals that regularly show up on my easel - Bear, Fox, Wolf, Rabbit, Horse - have taken on symbolic meaning, at least to me, over time.  But Deer, she’s not made it to the easel often enough for me to have an idea as to what she means.

  Tempest take a peek at her on my website Pictured above, Tempest, acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, image painted around the sides so no pressing need to frame, $5000 plus s&h ($600 inside the contiguous US) to the first asking nicely. The link above will take you directly to my website where you can make her yours. Questions? Just   reach out . This is another one that began last August. I loved the start - beautiful line work and sworls of energy in a predominantly light filled space - but couldn’t really see or feel where she was going from there.

Therefore she needed similar treatment...

The link above will take you directly to my website where you can make her yours. Questions? Just  reach out . This one began last August. Yes, you read that right. Nearly a year ago. Some paintings show up and are completed inside the blink of an eye. Others take a bit longer. I try not to stress about it - various things happen that can impact a pieces’ momentum. As long as I am continually showing up in the studio and doing my part to be receptive to my muse and artistic growth, it is what it is. And yup, the title is inspired by van Gogh. His struggle to create is no secret, and I thought a little nod to this lady’s journey was appropriate. I think she was worth the wait, though, don’t you? Get a close up look at Starry Night...
