“Donal”

Donal
Skye

Meet “Donal”. Yes, I painted another “heilan coo”. a.k.a. highland cow.  Because of “Skye” and his popularity I was commissioned by the daughter of his purchaser to paint another Skye. Acknowledging that I can’t paint the same thing exactly the same way twice (especially on a smaller scale) I agreed. Donal is the result. I do like the fact that both beasties are completely different characters. That’s the joy of creating.  I also like the fact that both will be hanging in welcoming appreciative homes. Many thanks to the lovers of Donal and Skye.

Artist Susan Feniak. Donal is acrylic on a 16″ x 16″ gallery wrapped canvas. Skye is acrylic on a 24″ x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas.

Now I hope to have time to paint something new and different.


Thank you

Skye 🔴 Sold

Thank you everyone that came to the art show and sale at the Red Barn in Sicamous this past weekend. Because of you it was a success.  Many thanks to all the volunteers that worked hard before, during and after the show.

Although I miss him “Skye” found a new home and so did “Mr Heron”.

Now to start working on new pieces for next year’s show.

Cheers Susan Feniak


Wow!

Wow! Thank you to everyone who came to the first day of the art show and voted for my painting “Skye”! 🔴 We won the first ever people’s choice award at the show. As far as I know this is the first time we’ve held a people’s choice contest. There will be a new winner every day during the show.

The show is still open tomorrow June 29th through July 1st. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. I will be there from 1 to 4 everyday.

Hope to see you there!

“Skye” is varnished and framed.

“Skye” is varnished and has a frame.  Because of the cost of a frame I have to increase the asking price for “Skye” to $450.00 cdn plus shipping. It’s a white metal floating frame. Measuring 25″ to outside edges. I can still offer “Skye” at the original price of $350.00 without the frame.

Meet “Skye”. Artist Susan Feniak. Acrylic on a 24″x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas.

Skye is available. Asking $350 cdn plus shipping.

Skye is a highlander. I  know it’s not my first attempt at painting one of these guys but Skye certainly is the biggest version.

It felt good to get back to my easel and creating.

Cheers Susan


Look what’s coming to life on my easel…

Start…WIP

Work in progress
“Skye” WIP

Look what’s coming to life on my easel! “Skye”. A highlander and a homage to my ancestral home, Scotland.

Remember this is a work in progress. I am still wondering if I should paint some flowers and greens strewn in Skye’s hair and horns. Or keep it simple and quaint. Almost as is….

Regardless it feels good to spend time at my easel. It’s been since before Christmas.

I will keep you updated when completed. In the meantime I hope everyone had a good Easter weekend.

Cheers Susan Feniak

Home

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


Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo Mexico

We are still enjoying beautiful Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo. The above are a few photos taken while here. The sunsets are stunning. The bougainvillea is dripping with multi coloured blooms. I bought myself an ebike which provides me some independence. I still tour around on the trusty scooter with my husband. Kind of hard to get a photo of the two of us on that.

World events are rather disturbing these days. It’s difficult to find positivity but we continue to find it with each day.

Make every day count.

Enjoy the photos.

Cheers Susan
