Mother Love

Mother Love

“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.


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!

Cheers Susan Feniak

Coming up soon, THE annual July long weekend art show at the Red Barn Arts Centre in Sicamous.  I am excited to once again be sharing my art with you at the show. If you are in the area please pop by. I will be there from 1 to 4 p.m. daily.

The above paintings will be available along with a new batch of my “one of a kind” greeting cards.

“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


Away, saying hello to 68!

As you may have guessed, I am away. We are in Mexico for the next while.

I few days ago I said hello to 68 and celebrated with my toes in the sand and a margarita in my hand. Maybe more then one margarita. But who is counting?

If I have time for art I will post it. I brought cards to work on while here.

Hope you are all having a good winter.

Cheers Susan Feniak

2024 paintings part 2! Please see my previous post for part 1 and the explanation for why I had to make parts 1 and 2!

I think that I produced a lot of art work in 2024. I know many of you create a lot more than I but considering my artistic year didn’t start until late March at the earliest, 17 larger pieces seems a fair amount.

Remember that I also created countless of my “one of a kind” cards too. I haven’t included photos of them or my smaller pieces.

At this time I would like to thank you, my friends, followers and collectors for your continued support. It helps me to know that what I create is indeed appreciated. Your support helps me to continue on this journey of mine.

Cheers Susan Feniak


September was a busy month…

Carey, my husband

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.
