“Heartsease” has received some more revisions. I am particularly fussy about putting this view onto canvas. It is, after all, our favorite view of Mara Lake BC. I am now happy with what I see. And feel that Heartsease doesn’t need anymore tweaks or revisions. All ready for your viewing enjoyment.
Speaking of revisions, “Ebb and Flow” also got a few more tweaks or highlights. It will be ready for varnishing soon. In the meantime it’s ready for everyone’s visual enjoyment.
Heartsease is acrylic on a 20″ x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas. Asking $350.00 cdn plus shipping.
Ebb and Flow is acrylic on a 24″ x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas. Asking $400.00 cdn plus shipping. If either get framed they will have to be priced accordingly.

Ebb and Flow has seen a lot of changes over the last couple of days. I am happier with this new version. So far. I am fickle. There could possibly be a few more tweaks but for now I am saying “done”. To see this painting pre revision please visit my previous post.
If you like the new version or even if you don’t feel free to let me know. Constructive criticism is welcome.

September was a busy month…

September was a busy month. Carey, my husband retired! At 71 years young it was time. Anyway it was cause for celebration. We also celebrated his birthday. In between all the celebrating I was busily filling an order for 10 of my “one of a kind” Christmas cards. Sorry, but it is that time of year again. When an artist has to plan and come up with fresh ideas for Christmas. In between that creativity I was making more cards to sell at a store here in Sicamous called, Willow. There was the limited edition 2025 calendars to design. And more painting and creating with Mara Muse, my favorite piece so far this year. I didn’t include a photo of it but you can check it out on a previous blog.
So, as you can see September was a busy month. Now I have to settle down and start the long process of getting our houseboat ready for winter. We will be moving to town soon and closing At Last for the season.
Hope everyone had a fabulous summer. Cheers
Artist Susan Feniak.

This paintinghas since Sold. 🔴 “Mara Muse”. I have been trying to capture the view from the aft deck of our houseboat for 8 years. That’s how long we’ve owned our boat. I think that I succeeded today! Yay! I have made several attempts but this one makes my heart sing. See me smile. Funny something that is so near and dear can be so difficult to duplicate. But not today. I started and finished this painting in one day. Yes, you read that correctly, one day. I found the zone. Nothing feels better to an artist than that zone. Trust me.

Update, this painting has SOLD. Thank you Gayle and Rick. The making of “Day’s Eye”. From the David Oakes photo to the completed painting.
Thank you again to David for kindly giving me permission to use his beautiful photo.
At one stage of this painting I had to wonder, “What was I thinking?”. There were a lot of petals and a lot of layers. But I persevered and I am very happy that I did.
Thank you for stopping by and having a look.

Labor of love. “Day’s Eye”

“Day’s Eye”. This latest painting has been a labor of love. Memories of our youngest son’s life and loss kept me going on this one. I needed an out and the best way for me to accomplish that is paint, to escape. Go to my happy place. For HOURS!! Or wallow, and I don’t do that.
Also, for those of you that haven’t figured it out yet, I love flowers. Once upon a time I was a florist and designer extraordinaire.
For the photo credit I would like to thank, photographer and friend David Oakes. He very kindly gave me permission to use his photo of these glorious daisy’s. Thank you David.

Sold 🔴 “The Sun and Moon.” Or El sol y la luna. The latest painting drying on my easel. One of my favorite places is Zihuatanejo Mexico. A fishing village on the Pacific coast. This painting is my depiction of two Zihua fishing boats, known as pangas, resting at anchor. Normally at the end of the day these boats are hauled up onto the beach. But I wanted to show how beautiful the water is so my boats are at anchor. I have painted many boats without issue but these two started out a bit wonky. I am pretty sure I fixed that. And before anyone mentions it, yes I broke a rule and placed the boats dead centre!! No rule of thirds in this one. It’s about the colors, ocean, and boats. My loves.

I am pleased to share with you the latest painting from my easel, “Summery Show”.
What other flower, other than perhaps sunflowers, brighten anyone’s flower garden? Rudbeckia of course! Also know as Black Eyed Susan’s.
Here I have enjoyed showing off the beauty of what some would consider an old fashioned garden favorite. In my world they are a standard for any garden. They were always in mine.
This painting is all about the showy blooms. I treated the foliage as a minor player, lacking detail.
Artist Susan Feniak. Acrylic on a 20″ x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas, painted on all sides. Asking $350.00 cdn not including shipping. If you are interested in “Summery Show” or any of my other works my email address is: sfeniakart@gmail.com

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.
