It was a two painting day!!! Along with “Lookin’ Up” I played around with this painting. Because I am never too sure about my ability with water colors I usually hesitate to post my efforts. I am taking a chance here and hope you like it. Stayin’ warm! This was a good pass time. Cheers!
The Cabin at Haven Point Revisited

Original art by Susan Feniak acrylic on 18” x 24” box canvas
My first painting of 2014! I decided to go back to one of my favourite places and enjoy the reminder of summer. The first version I did of this I was a relatively inexperienced painter so why not revisit? The cabin itself is situated at Haven Point on Shuswap Lake. When I walk by the cabin on a warm summers day it seems and feels like a cool restful place. Unfortunately it is falling apart and has been deemed unsafe. Some year soon, on our first boating weekend of the season I will no doubt be saddened by the cabins winter demise. In the meantime it was nice to have a reminder of summer and warm snow free days!

For interest sake. Its hard to believe that my latest painting is based on the water lilies that were in my pond just a short couple of months ago. Just look at the frozen snowy landscape it is now!!
Hopefully I will have time to complete the painting in the next little while. In the meantime enjoy the wonderland that is my yard and pond this day.

A Lazy Eagle River
Posted: November 15, 2013 Filed under: Acrylic on Canvas, Country, Landscapes, Original art, The Shuswap | Tags: Acrylic on canvas, Country Art, Eagle River, Eagle Valley, landscape, Local artist, original art, Shuswap Art, Susan Feniak Acrylic 18 CommentsOriginal art by Susan Feniak acrylic on 12” x 36” canvas
This is a painting of the Eagle River. The river meanders threw the Eagle Valley and drains into Shuswap Lake. This is where I live. Eagle River moves rather slowly or lazily on a hot summers day. A different story come spring run off. On this summers day when I took the photo the reflections and surrounding scenery were inspiring. Who couldn’t resist taking photos or painting an image? The canvas itself is a bit of an odd size and has been sitting in my stock pile for awhile now waiting for this opportunity.
This painting is offered for sale. $175.00 plus shipping.
I do welcome comments.
Good Morning Rendevous!

If you can imagine waking up to this view in the morning then you will understand why I love boating on the Shuswap. This particular morning was extraordinary. The lake was calm and the reflections were inspiring. Rendevous, a marine park on the Anstey Arm of Shuswap Lake, is one of our favourite places to wake up at. Spending several days anchored there is better yet!
A welcoming scene on this November day.
This painting is for sale and is offered at $150.00 plus shipping.

Recently I found a photo in a magazine that really caught my eye. The picture seemed so calm, cool and relaxing. I just had to paint the scene. Here is my rendition of that photo. I hope I have managed to capture the same serene feeling the photo held. If nothing else perhaps it is a nice country scene and all can enjoy it as much as I.
As per usual this painting is for sale and your comments are welcome.
Thanks for taking the time to look at my art. Susan Feniak
Also, I will give credit to the original photographer. I believe that to be a Andreas Trauttmansdorff.

I had fun doing this one. It is from a series of images rambling around in my head. I set to work at my easel just yesterday. Two afternoons later and voila here it is. This is a bit of a homage to my husband’s family who are originally from northern Alberta.
Of course there is a great deal of artistic license happening here with the addition of wild flowers and color, lots of color again! Not just an old hay field, not for me.
As always comments are welcome. And the painting is for sale.
Hope you like it! Susan
