Coming up soon, THE annual July long weekend art show at the Red Barn Arts Centre in Sicamous.  I am excited to once again be sharing my art with you at the show. If you are in the area please pop by. I will be there from 1 to 4 p.m. daily.

The above paintings will be available along with a new batch of my “one of a kind” greeting cards.

Cheers Susan Feniak


Cards

I am fortunate to have a local business owner who is providing space for me to show and hopefully sale my “one of a kind” cards. I am grateful to April from “Willow” a ladies clothing store on Main Street in Sicamous. Several cards have sold so I got busy and made some more. The photos represent the new ones that I dropped off the other day and as far as I know are still available.

Artist Susan Feniak. “one of a kind” greeting cards. Literally one of a kind, all hand painted, watercolor and ink on 5″ x 7″ cards. Prices range from $8 to $10 cdn each.


A revision and a reminder…

Raven Trail Autumn 2018
Raven Trail Autumn 2024
A reminder…

This time I have a revision of a painting that I did back in 2018 to share with you. I was never particularly happy with “Raven Trail Autumn” but at the time I decided to leave it alone. Every time I looked at it I wanted to do something to it but was never sure what. The boardwalk bothered me and the lake in the distance did too. So this week I finally put Raven Trail Autumn back on my easel and had a go at changing it. Hopefully for the better. As you can see I posted the 2018 version on top and the 2024 revision bellow it.

The reminder is for the upcoming annual July long weekend Art Show and Sale at the Red Barn in Sicamous. Please, if you are in the area, drop by and visit the show. We have a lot of very talented people in our neck of the woods. I will be volunteering at the show daily from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and I will have four of my bigger paintings available along with a table of my smaller paintings and “one of a kind” cards for sale.

Getting my groove back…

SOLD

We have moved to the lake for the next 5 to 6 months. Our home is a 50 foot houseboat on the Shuswap. I look forward to the lazy days of summer. When all the estate matters for my mother have been dealt with. When I can find inspiration and create.

In the meantime…it snowed on the hills overnight and our furnace isn’t working. It is cold and blustery. The houseboat rocking. Getting my fingers to work could be a problem. It will be a stay indoors, try to stay warm, kind of day. Time for art. Get my groove back. A good thing.

Just settled down for a long winter’s nap….

I have been busily filling an order for 10 “one of a kind” Christmas cards. So far the little mouse settling down for a long winter’s nap and the happy snowman are my favorite. I will be making more to sell at a local store, Rikki Lou Who’s Gift Emporium. It’s situated downtown Salmon Arm on Alexander St. It’s a Christmas card assembly line and my imagination gets to work overtime. I love it!

It’s name that painting time!

The start
Progress
New art completed

Drying on my easel, new art. As you can tell by the subject matter I started this one months ago. At the time I lost interest in it. What can I say? I started several paintings and didn’t finish any of them. It happens. Now I am back on both creative feet and ready to finish what I started.

Now it’s up to you and me to give this painting a title. “Daffo-dum-dilies”, or “Daffodilicious”. My great grandmother used to call daffodils Daffo-dum-dilies. My husband suggested Daffodilicious.

Artist Susan Feniak. Acrylic on a 16″ x 16″ gallery canvas. Painted on all sides, no frame needed. $200.00 cdn plus shipping. All my pieces are original. I do not make prints. You would be purchasing one of kind. If you are interested please email sfeniakart@gmail.com Thank you. No NFT.

Photo 1 Today I completed my first bigger painting in a long time. It felt good. I am happy to be back at my easel.

I would like to thank photographer Mark Schroeder for giving me permission to use his beautiful and inspirational photo of Shuswap Lake. It was the perfect muse to set me back on my artistic journey.

Photo 2 Today was our youngest Grand daughters 11th birthday. This little corgi is the card I made for her. Last summer when she stayed with us for a few days I asked her what would be her favorite dog breed and her response was “corgi”. Grandma enjoyed making this one.
