Paintings With Soul

  This is my 25th year in business, which is a huge milestone for any entrepreneur. It's even bigger for one in the creative industry. I am celebrating my 25th all year long! One of the ways I am celebrating is via a new video series I've called Business Bites. Business Bite video shorts are me sharing some of what I’ve learned. Many artists generously supported me while I was building my business - this video series is my way of paying their kindness forward.  I realize that this group is primarily collectors. However, I am both an artist and a collector myself, and therefore suspect some of you might be interested in this sort of information.

check her out, make her yours 18”x24”, acrylic on panel, $1350 to the first asking nicely. This price includes s&h inside the contiguous US. Canadian shipping available at additional cost. Originally I was calling these paintings Momma Bears, having their roots in the symbol of a mother bear in protection mode. However, as Sky has slowly taken up more and more real estate in the paintings, I do believe a better moniker is “Sky Bear.” If you missed my analogy last time, I’m using the shape of Bear as ancient protector, and Sky represents an embrace or immeasurable space that surrounds each of us equally. I am using moods of Sky and her various elements - alongside Bear’s body language and other effects - to add layers of emotion and symbology to the painting. The viewer can then write their own interpretation or reading of the image, building a personal narrative. The button above will take you to my website for secure purchasing.

The challenge was this - how could I create a painting that spoke to the whiplash of rage and despondence I saw fellow humans experiencing? Fox stepped up for that role.
