Ready for Abbey Lane

Christine2_5581

Here I am, shown in my studio, with some of my new artwork and antlers that are ready to be delivered to Abbey Lane Gallery, Creede, Colorado for the gallery opening on Memorial weekend, 2017. I hope to see you there!

Some new subject matter that I’ve been working on are small, 6″ x 6″ paintings of aspen trees, and a more horizontal format for the trout impressions. Also to be delivered are two large trout paintings titled East and West Willow, the creeks where they were caught many years ago.

Artful Antlers for your home

I’ve recently completed a series of antler artwork for the home. They can be hung on a wall with other object or artwork, set inside a bookcase displayed with other objects of art, or set on a table as part of a tablescape. A gallery in Colorado uses them to display jewelry for sale.

They are made of real deer antlers,  silver and gold foil, paint, mini glass beads, semi-precious and man-made stones, that shimmer and glow as light hits them. They also cast really nice shadows on your walls!

Prices do not include shipping, packing or insurance. Measurements are height x width x depth.

June collages

Here are the newest collages I’ve created in May and June. Enjoy! email for more information, pricing and availability.

Cottonwood Monotypes

Just completed framing three, hand painted monotypes of our cottonwood tree. I’ve been documenting the tree year-round for over a year to use as reference, usually when the light is special, or there is something about the architecture of the tree I enjoy seeing. She is majestic, old, and home to at least three families of squirrels, and possibly flickers and/or woodpeckers. The orioles have not nested their for several years, but I have seen them investigating this week.

Cottonwood Triptych 12" square, framed. Artwork 5" x 5.25". Monotype with hand painting.

March Fourth and Fish

Spring is surely around the corner! I am delighting in painting and making collages to remind me of the joy I find while trout fishing, in the sunny Colorado mountains-or the rain, or snow, in spite of which I still have a good time. Here are the latest paintings and collages for your enjoyment.
