“Mr. Heron” SOLD

Meet “Mr. Heron”. He is a neighbor of ours at Three Buoys Marina in Sicamous. I probably do a portrait of him once a year. Sometimes more, sometimes none. He inspires me. What can I say? The photos aren’t exactly in the right order but I am pretty sure they will give the gist of my process.

When I come up with a better title you will be the first to know. In the meantime I hope you enjoy meeting Mr. Heron, again. If you have any comments or are interested in owning Mr. Heron, the painting, please feel free to email me at sfeniakart@gmail.com

“Mr. Heron” is acrylic on a 12″ x 24″ gallery canvas. SOLD 🔴 Asking $200.00 cdn plus shipping. Artist Susan Feniak.


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.

Inspired….”Crescendo”.

Plus my 2024 FCA badge!
“Crescendo”

Yes, once again the ocean has inspired me. I thoroughly enjoyed playing with my brushes and paint for this one. My imagination was in play as well.

It came to me. I think the perfect title for this one is “Crescendo”. What do you think?

The above photos are in sequence. From a blank canvas, not shown, to the completed creation. A mountainous break. Perhaps my hours of watching the breaks in Ixtapa helped inspire this one.

I have also included my official 2024 Federation of Canadian Artists badge.

Another one on the easel….WIP

Work in progress…

This week I decided to revisit another painting that I did years ago. That one was titled “My Pink Pond Lillies”.  That painting has long since found it’s forever home.

I haven’t got a title for this version yet and as you can tell it’s still very much a work in progress.  It’s interesting for me to see how much my style has changed or not. And if I have improved or not.

All that being said this painting was requested by someone who may or may not have been serious about that request. When people ask me to paint something I don’t think they realize the time and effort that goes into each piece. Not to mention my heart and soul. I have to charge accordingly. Sometimes that price comes as a bit of a shock. Compared to some artists my prices are not unreasonable. And I can’t give my heart and soul away. Think about it that way. It helps.

When finished this painting will be $300.00
