"S' UP" an OSTRICH FOR MY ETSY SHOP © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"S' Up" an Ostrich
4"x4" oil on textured panel
$30

 When I see this face, I see the phrase "S' Up"...doesn't this ostrich just look like that is what is being said! A funny look at a funny bird that has a million faces; all funny! "S' Up" is for the person with a sense of humor! "S' Up" is painted in oil on a slightly textured panel. You can frame this ostrich as is in your favorite 4"x4" frame (keep in mind 1/2" is taken on all sides when framing), or for just .50 more I can mount this funny bird on a 5"x5" off white or black backer board so you can frame in your favorite 5"x5" frame with all sides showing! The examples are shown with each color; though the frames are not included. You can find the off white frame on ETSY at Rustic and Refined Design, or the black frame at Michaels in their photo frame section.











I've been exploring frame options for some of my panel paintings.  I came up with this frame for my "Yellow and White Daisies" that will be hanging in the Stanton Gallery Littleton show coming up January 6, 2015! This one has a couple types of molding...and paper...FUN!
Another frame I came up with for my daughter's Christmas painting to go in baby girl's room I hear...I've made one like it for my newest ostrich painting posting soon!!

HAPPY CREATING!

HARREINGTON B III" A BUNNY OF SOME MEANS © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Harreington B III"
6x4" oil on textured panel
comes FRAMED
$75

 "Harreington B III" is a bunny that came from fame and fortune. He's trying his best to find his way with all that B the III tagging along behind, and I think he is making a fine figure of a bunny! Harreington comes with his own very stately but fun frame; with a distressed off white finish. A perfect pair I'd say. He can hang or sit on a table! 
 finished frame size : 10 1/4" x 8 1/4"


Christmas found us with my most wonderful son who has recently transplanted from San Diego.  I think the cold of Colorado and the lack of ocean is a bit much, so I see him returning as soon as humanly possible!  But, for now it is good to have his face near by; even if for a season!
 
 HAPPY CREATING!

"GOOSE NECK" ORIGINAL OIL ON TEXTURED PANEL © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Goose Neck"
6"x4" oil on textured panel
ON HOLD for Stanton Art Gallery

Another painting for my show in Jan at the Stanton Gallery in Littleton, Co.  I think I've learned a lesson for the future.  Although I am happy to be in a show, doing artwork right before Christmas that I don't put in my own ETSY shop is a little frustrating! However I'm sure it will all work out in the end...what does not sell will go in the shop right after the show is over in February.  Lessons are awesome!  That's how we end up with a life that we want!

I, however, have done a couple more ostrich paintings...one for sure in my ETSY shop!  Stay tuned!

HAPPY CREATING!

"WHITE AND YELLOW DAISIES" ORIGINAL OIL ON TEXTURED 6"X6" PANEL © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"White and Yellow Daisies"
6x6" oil on textured panel
ON HOLD for show at the Stanton Gallery in Littleton, CO
Jan 6-Feb 10, 2015

Just a little formal"ish" floral arrangement.  This was a request of sorts...I will be framing it in the next week or so...stay tuned!

It has been a bit crazy in the ole Galloway household the past couple of months.  I remain dedicated to working constantly, but it is spread out among my gallery in Conifer, my ETSY shop, and the show coming up on January at the Stanton Gallery in old town Littleton, CO.  Oh, and gifts for family and friends.  I'm sure we will all pull through these busy holiday commitments...until then...

HAPPY CREATING!

"OTTITUDE" AN OSTRICH © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Ottitude" an Ostrich with Attitude!
4"x4" oil on textured panel, $30
SOLD

I don't know why it is that an ostrich face makes one laugh, and our girl, Ottitude doesn't disappoint!
SUCH an attitude, but still adorable and funny! "Ottitude" is painted in oil on a 4"x4" slightly textured panel. You can purchase her as is and set her on a small easel, or frame her in your own 4"x4" frame (keep in mind 1/2" is taken on each side for framing), OR for just .50 more I can mount her on a 5"x5" off white or black matt baker board so she can be framed as in the suggestions (frames not included), in a 5"x5" frame with all her sides showing. I have several 5"x5" frames available here on ETSY if you want to add a frame as well. Ready to ship now.
 A friend of mine had these rock tiles and asked me one day if I could figure out what to do with them I could have them...HA...what an awesome challenge for an artist!!  SO, I added these charms to them...and sometimes wire and VOILA...paper weights...probably magnets too...I'll be putting them in my gallery in Conifer; Luna's Mandala!  FUN DOINS!
HAPPY CREATING!!

"I SEE YOU" AN OSTRICH WITH ATTITUDE © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"I See You" an Ostrich with Attitude
4x4" on a 1/2" thick textured panel
comes with her own easel
AVAILABLE AT LUNA'S MANDALA
I've been working really hard of late, trying to get work finished for my gallery in Conifer; Luna's Mandala, as well as ETSY (I think this poor shop has suffered most), and the art show I'm in at the Stanton Gallery in Littleton, Co starting Jan. 6.  It's been a juggling act for sure I admit!  "I See You" is an ostrich I painted exclusively for my gallery in Conifer...but I've also painted one for ETSY...see it tomorrow!  I DO LOVE painting these quirky birds...they all make me laugh!

I've also been trying to decorate for Christmas around here...I got our little Charlie Brown tree, as my husband calls it...all decked out...and of course I always put my ornaments of my kiddos on the tree!
So, pause for a bit of Christmas cheer!!
HO HO HO!!
I finished framing one of my 5x5" paintings..."Raven Pose"...I DO enjoy making these frames.  This one can also be found at Luna's Mandala.
HAPPY CREATING!

"CHRISTMAS CANVAS BASKETS" © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

Canvas Santa bags and Christmas bitties for Luna's Mandala!
It was fun to play with my canvas and make some Christmas gift baskets for my gallery in Conifer; Luna's Mandala.  They go fast, so if you want to snag one for your holiday gift giving, come on up!  She's open every day in December!

This year we decided to thin out our little pines that grow in great large bunches...so our Christmas Tree is one of those.  It was fun to just stroll down our driveway and pick out a tree.  Our sweet little tree is about 5' tall, so I decided to make a canvas basket for it and put it on our chest across from our front door.  Decorating comes next!  FUN DOINS!
I made a stamp for this one...and then added a bit of color here and there...
HAPPY CREATING!
