Adelaide

"Adelaide" - mixed media on gallery wrapped canvas, 60" x 22".  Ready to hang.  Available here and at Artfinder.

​There is a lot of witchy-ness here in Portland.  A school for witchcraft, witchy night markets, consult-a-witch and even a guild just for witches.  I haven't met a bad witch yet.  Only the very, very good kind.

So when my son challenged me to paint a witch, I couldn't resist.  Adelaide and her familiars have been hatching in the studio for about a month now.  And even Pongo respects this lady, gently tip-toeing around her as he sniffs the paint rags for hidden treats.  My intern insisted the witch required unfamiliar familiars....which definitely explains the mysterious toucan.    Her large beast, however, is a known cookie thief and a demander of marshmallows.  Secrets and symbols are lurking within her garb, but I am pretty sure Adelaide is also a very, very good witch.

I received a demand letter from the toucan for more witches.  Hmmmmm.

Shadow Puppets

The personalized pricing revolution continues!  This week's feature is "Shadow Puppets", a small abstract (12.5 x 11) with a big attitude.  
 
I am working my way through all of the pieces online (nearly 100 in total) and converting them to revolutionary status.   If there is a piece you have your eye on, let me know and I'll move it to the front of the line. :)

What a beautiful and kind witch! And her body guard is equally kind! They look like they just jumped out the land of Oz! Her sad eyes have a story to tell!

Carol! I love that they look Ozian to you. :) Being a witch is a heavy responsibility, and Adelaide takes her job quite seriously. She sees the woe in the world and works her spells to make things better.

Don't let the beasts fool you - they are trouble makers! haha!

Here's the blue wild, where
tiny dreamers ride beasts, speak
​ birdsong, hold the moon.
