Once Upon a Time, by Colorado Artist, Donna L. Martin

Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time, on a cold, winter’s night, the trees stood humble and still. All was calm and bright. There was hope. And the stars exhaled in gratitude.

This is an original Mixed Media piece created with many layers of papers, paints and inks.  The original is sold, but commissions are welcome.

"Trio of Aspen", original mixed media triptych by Colorado artist, Donna L. Martin

Trio of Aspen

 

Detail

 

Closeups of leaf detail

 

 

This triptych was a commission.  I had to really think about these pieces.  The husband prefers traditional pieces of art and his wife likes more contemporary artwork.  I was tying to figure out how to "marry" the two styles.  It took so much time to complete!  These were done on 12 X 36, 2" deep cradle board.  The pieces are comprised of molding paste, crackle paste, paper, paint, burlap, tulle, and bronze nail heads.

"Moonlit Winter Aspens", Original Mixed Media Painting by Colorado Artist, Donna L. Martin

Moonlit Winter Aspens

 

 

This is a little mixed media piece I did depicting aspen trees on a snowy winter night.  This piece sat around for about 10 months before I finally decided what to do with the background!  It was done on MDF board with molding paste and crackle paste for texture.  It was completed with acrylic paint.  The original is sold, but commissions are welcome.

"Aspen Dance in The Forest of Whimsy II" 30"x24" Canvas, Original Abstract Aspen Tree Painting by Colorado Contemporary Artist Kimberly Conrad

Kimberly Conrad Contemporary Artist "Pouring Color Into Your Life"

 Original Abstract Aspen Tree Painting on 30"x24x7/8" gallery wrapped canvas

The  painting posted Sunday, which was similar to this one... was a commission piece.This piece was painted at the same time. Upon occasion, when I am commissioned to do a painting that I think may be complicated, I will paint two for the buyer to choose from. This one is available. All of the paints in this piece are metallic, which are sooooo beautiful ..but very difficult to photograph. I have taken 26 photos of this painting, and am not happy with any of them. The tree on the right in this piece is just as vivid and bold as the other two, but the light hits that side of the painting making it look washed out in comparison!!

The sides are painted and this painting can hang as is, or be frames in a standard 30"x24" open wood frame. The buyer of the other piece chose to frame in the bronze color from the painting, black would be lovely as well.

Perfect Day by Kay Wyne

Perfect Day

48" x 72" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Palette Knife Painting

I took a break from on the collaborative commission that Sharon and I have been working on for the past three weeks and put this canvas on my easel.  When I needed a break from the long hours of that job, I worked on this painting.  I wanted to paint something loose and colorful, fun and happy.  I used two different palette knives on this painting...so there is plenty of paint built up on the canvas.  Blending colors, I was mindful that it doesn't take much mixing to create MUD.  I also got brave and put my least favorite color in....green.  I usually back away from greens of any shade, but cad green was a good choice, especially when it bounces off the cad reds and oranges.  Thanks for looking at this painting.  Contact me if you have any questions about this painting....kay@kwyne.com.

"LEAF DANCE" 12040, mixed media collaged aspen leaves © Carol Nelson Fine Art

Leaf Dance

These leaves are made from Viva paper towels.  The towel has a texture to it that you can see in the actual painting, but doesn't show very well in this photo.

The paper towels started out as my brush cleaner.  I noticed what great color they had, so I decided to recycle the towel as leaves in a painting.

How very green of me!
