“Mother Love”. Introducing Fiona and wee Archie. I cannot explain my adoration of heilan coo’s. Especially this year. First there was “Skye”, then “Donal” now this, Mother Love with Fiona and Archie. I was inspired by a photo that I saw on a FB page @lovescotland. I had to paint the love shared between the two, a mother and her calf, portrayed in that photo.
Mother Love is by Susan Feniak. Acrylic on a 24″ x 24″ gallery wrapped canvas. Asking $400 cdn plus shipping. Currently unframed.
Cheers Susan Feniak.
“Donal”

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.
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 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

This is Rory. He is a handsome young highlander. Don’t you think? I have painted highlanders before, Hamish and Fiona to name two. But those were always watercolor creations. Rory is acrylic on an 11″ x 14″ canvas board. He is another painting in my attempt to build my inventory of smaller works.

Duke and Princess 
Fiona
It’s a rainy day here. A perfect day to make some more “one of a kind cards”. “Duke and Princess”. Years ago I did a painting similar to this one. At that time I considered it a turning point in my watercolor work. I left it up to the viewer to decide which one is Duke and which one is Princess. I am doing that again this time.
“Fiona” is “Hamish’s” sister. You may remember Hamish from last year. He was a 9″ x 11″ painting. Now hanging in a friend’s home. Fiona is a card I made for another friends birthday. Fiona seems to have managed to get herself into the same predicament as Hamish!

World Watercolor Month Day 26 prompt “Favorite Song”. We are a music loving household. That made it difficult to choose one song. There have been so many artists that we have listened to over many years. Our play list is long and varied. There is one song that I sing to myself often enough to single out and that is Rhythm of My Heart by Rod Stewart. The verse and the bagpipes pull at my heart. I created this painting with QoR watercolors and Pixma Micron ink on Strathmore card stock. To learn more about World Watercolor Month please visit worldwatercolormonth.com While there check out the shop. All proceeds benefit The Dreaming Zebra Foundation. Thank you.
