4"x4" oil on gallery wrap 1.5" canvas

$45 +$6.95 shipping in US

 

Keeping the Raven series going today is "Portrait of a Raven" for my gallery in Conifer; Luna's Mandala.  Remember, if you are interested in this wise ole dude just e-mail me and I'll bring him home and ship him to you!

 

A strong fellow just posing for a moment.  For the Raven lover; those who value wisdom; which is one of the symbols of the Raven!  Ready to hang in that perfect spot, or it's unique 1 1/2" depth allows you to sit him just about anywhere! Remember each monitor reads color a bit differently.  The background for this portrait has neutral tan with a bit of the blue from the bird himself. I'd say a bit between the full pic and the side view...this one was a tickle to photograph!!

 

HAPPY CREATING!



"FACE TO THE SUN - A CROW" ORIGINAL OIL ON GALLERY WRAP CANVAS © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Face to the Sun - a Crow"

4"x4" oil on texture gallery wrap canvas

SOLD 3-25-2013...Thank you Sherry!
 

 If you have ever wondered why I add the - a Crow...or any other descriptive term it is because search engines will like it better to have the description.  If someone is looking specifically for something they will type that word in...thus...the - ......:)

 

The little gallery wrap canvas is nice for these little guys sometimes...they can hang right on the wall OR sit alone on a shelf.  I paint these for my gallery in Conifer...Luna's Mandala.  But, until he is dry he is here and you can buy him directly from me!

 

HAPPY CREATING!



"RUFFLED FEATHERS" ORIGINAL MIXED MEDIA ON 4X4" PANEL © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Ruffled Feathers"

4"x4" mixed media on panel

SOLD in my ETSY shop!

 

I had to paint another crow as a companion to "Crow" and this guy was it.  I know the two backgrounds are not photographed equally...the first one was a little bright in the photo, but they were painted side by side, so they do go together nicely.  Or, they stand alone just fine also!  As I've been doing, I added black to the sides so it can sit on an easel alone, or I have also added (at no extra cost) a black acid free/lightfast backer board that is 5x5" so, when mounted the painting "floats" free of edges being cut off. 

 

HAPPY CREATING!!

 



"CROW" ORIGINAL MIXED MEDIA 4X4" MINI ON PANEL OF CROW © SAUNDRA LANE GALLOWAY

"Crow"

4"x4" mixed media mini on panel

$25 plus $2 shipping in US

available in my ETSY store

 

This is a little back to my love of mixed media with this little painting...I enjoyed branching out to add a little more to my ETSY store...As the others are, his sides are painted black...the background is acrylic and paper and the crow and branch is oil.  I absoluely LOVE mixing my media!

 

As I stated in my piece "Subtle Passage of Crows" the Native Americans look upon the crow as a symbol for keeping the law. While the spiral you can see in the background is a symbol for balance,progress, direction, development. Put the two together and it makes a strong statement for strength!

 

As I do with my other Etsy paintings I offer "Crow" with a black backer board for no extra charge...this is great for wanting to frame him with all the edges showing...the full monty I guess you'd call it...:) I've painted a companion piece to "Crow" that I will post tomorrow...so, stay tuned!

 

I'm in the mood for getting my sander out and grinding down some surfaces...Two are the abstracts I started in the workshop, and one is a finished painting that has been grating on me of late...check back to see what happens...good or...well, not so good; which I call "lesson learned"...

 

HAPPY CREATING!
