We are home! Actually we’ve been back in Canada for ten days now. It’s been a busy ten days.
The photos? There’s a couple of paintings that I have available. Our houseboat that we’re looking forward to spending the summer months on. Took a few minutes for myself and got a haircut. And my 2025 Federation of Canadian Artists badge.
Hopefully I’ll get time to spend time at my easel soon. And time to spend getting caught up here.
Hope everyone had a good winter. I am embracing the Canadian spring weather. A slight change from the Mexican sunshine and warmth.
Cheers Susan
And here it is….

Wahoo!! Can you see me smile? I am very pleased with how “Floral Extravaganza” looks hanging on the wall above the bed. That makes the redecorated bedroom complete.

2025 Calendars and new art in progress..

My 2025 calendars finally arrived. Long story short the first batch arrived and they were a hot mess covered with ink splotches and smudges. The printers replaced them for me, free of charge. I am very happy with the final results. I do a limited amount as I usually give them as gifts to close friends or family. This year I sold a few but I do have one left. If you are interested please email me at sfeniakart@gmail.com
Recently I bought new bedding. The old bedding had been on our bed since 2015. I loved it, but it was time for new. I bought what I loved again and no doubt it will be on our bed for many years to come. Normally the art I hang in our home is also what I love or it’s favorites of mine/ours. It doesn’t necessarily match furniture or bedding. That being said, the painting above our bed worked with our old bedding, not the new. Ergo there is a fresh painting in progress on my easel. Meant just for us. It is taking me hours to do!!
Remember if you are interested in one of my 2025 calendars please let me know. I only have one left but I can always do another printing.
Cheers Susan
This is me…

Let me reintroduce myself. This is me, Susan Feniak.
Artist Statement
Susan Feniak is a self taught Canadian artist who is an “Exhibiting Member”, (formerly known as, “Active Member”), of the prestigious Federation of Canadian Artists.
Susan and her family have lived in the Salmon Arm area of British Columbia since 1969 and she has been painting since 2009.
The beauty of the Shuswap inspires Susan. There are often lakescapes or landscapes of local scenes on her easel. Sometimes floral arrangements, seascapes or whimsical birds and animals will make an appearance. Wherever her vivid imagination takes her.
Susan uses acrylics or watercolours to make her creations. Her “one of a kind” hand painted greeting cards are ever popular.
Susan hopes that her art makes you smile. Her wish is to make this world a better place through art.
************
That is my updated and revised artist statement. Thank you for taking the time to read about me and visiting my website.
Cheers Susan
Home and catching up…

Home and getting caught up. I think the laundry is finally done and all the household bookkeeping too. Things do pile up when one is happily enjoying the good life. Now it’s back to reality.
I have missed my art and time spent playing at my easel. It’s time to get back to it! I have so many ideas rumbling around in my wee brain. The Mexican sunshine has inspired me.
In the meantime I still have paintings that need homes. These are photos of just a sampling of what I have available. My art is all original, “one of a kind”, I do not make prints. They are in a variety of sizes and are all acrylic on gallery quality thick canvas.
If you are interested please email me for details at sfeniakart@gmail.com
Thank you.
Paintings waiting for you and your home…

The Daisies are a new card. Something I haven’t been making lately. The Heron or “Misty Morning”, will be heading to a new home soon. I gave it away to very good friends as a wedding gift and now it will be going to a baby’s nursery. Just waiting for when that bundle of joy arrives. The small boat painting is sold. Ergo, new old and sold….
The artist for all is me, Susan Feniak. Sometimes I don’t have time for blogging or all the social media. At the moment I am without internet. News from me will be even more sporadic. For that I will apologize.
Happy Monday! Cheers
“Hyde to Mara”

My latest painting “Hyde to Mara”, is DONE! This painting is based on a photo I took last summer. Lunch at the Hyde Mountain golf course includes this idyllic view of Mara Lake in beautiful British Columbia. Playing golf is not for me but I will gladly enjoy lunch at the golf course just to partake of the views from many vantage points. I have been wanting to capture this particular view on canvas for some time. I hope I have done it some justice.

“Hyde to Mara”. Time for a change from flowers and paint a local scene. Based on a photo I took last summer after the wild fire smoke cleared. The view from Hyde Mountain golf course looking out over Mara Lake in beautiful British Columbia. Remember that this is a work in progress. This is an inspiring view for anyone to enjoy.

Work or play? My newest in progress painting is on the easel. I am having fun playing with the light on the water and in the sky. As a rule, after the ground or base coat, I start from the furthest point away, usually the sky, and work my way forward. Right or wrong? I don’t know, it’s just how I’ve always done it. My imagination is working overtime on this one. This is also one of the biggest paintings I have done.
