I'm sorry, I just had a creative itch

Can you spot the two lovers on that painting ?

Prairie Whales

Size: 16" x 10"

Medium: Acrylic

Support: Canvas

When I stand at the edge of a field out in the belly of the Canadian prairies i can't help but think of the ocean.  The way the grass waves in the wind. The distant whine of working farm equipment.  The dappled sunlight coming through scattered clouds. 

I love this painting because it feels like a dream, but also because it's the first I've painted my backyard.  Well, the field behind my backyard, and there's no whales out there. 

Probably.

I didn't do any blending on this piece. Does it work or not?

Origami Horse

Size: 4' (cm) x 5' (cm)

Medium: Oil and acrylic

Support: Canvas

After some years of living in Alberta, and finding that my art doesn't have a large audience there, I began pondering how i could make my art more accessible to a prairie based viewer. Having already competed three pieces for my origami series i thought of this as an opportunity to bring a sense of action to these works. 

Wild horses are a symbol of the west that is slowly being replaced by dreams of loud engines, and absurdly lifted trucks. In a world where their necessary habitat is being destroyed they could one day be a forgotten feature of the foothills.

Stickerlar benim değil

Wanted to change the angle and try something new.

Един мой натюрморт от 2022 г. – ярки жълти рози върху дълбок тъмен фон.

Жълтият цвят на розите носи символиката на радостта и светлината, но тук, обгърнат от сенките, той придобива ново, по-въздържано, но и по-магично излъчване.

After ten years of not drawing I've finally got back into it! I forgot how therapeutic it can be.

Would love some feedback!
