New Ravens

Some recent ravens. I’ve become partial to using a layer of interference gold, carving the raven, adding interference blue to the background, fusing, then details. These are all 5×7″ and $200 ea. I think that of these plus the 5×7 posted earlier, 2 will go to the Yukon Artists @ Work Gallery on Sunday, and 2 will go to the Yukon Gallery.

Actually, I painted 4 small ink ones while I was in Montreal, and two have sold already. I hope to get around to painting a couple more today…

I just sent many raven paintings to Juneau for my show at The Canvas Community Art Gallery in April. I’ll drive one big one down to Skagway on Monday.

I haven’t yet posted Saved, my series of encaustic collaged dresses made from the bits of things my Dad saved to work on his model trains and didn’t get to use. Also, I need to post Dreaming is in Season, the piece I made for Exquisite North, a collaborative show at Arts Underground. Coming soon! Cheers, Nicole.

The plan

Inspired by Jackie Irvine’s painting blog, I’m aiming to post paintings here as I create them. Not much words, mostly pictures.

Short and sweet.

Cheers, Nicole.
