MRS. CROW'S SPRING VISION

30 x 30

Oil on Board

I have been working on this painting for a couple days. This story painting came about while browsing thru some reference photos. I had a photo of this crow that I wanted to put into a painting, but I was also longing for springtime since it has been unusually cold for December in these parts, and I was looking at all these wonderful springtime flowers. My imagination took over and  Mrs. Crow became my wistful self enjoying a beautiful spring garden. This painting was created using just brushes (unusual for me...)  I will have to do my next painting with the pallet knives. 'Mrs. Crow's Spring Vision' is painted on 1/4 inch board that is attached to a wood box frame (looking similar to a gallery wrapped canvas) and is for sale for $875.00. Contact me to purchase and  regarding shipping charges. Visit my blog for more information: susanmspohn.blogspot.com   also take a look at my website: susanmspohn.com

"The Magi" by Kate Dardine

Today's painting is a commissioned piece. The client wanted something depicting her mare and foal. Since I was painting this over Christmas, thoughts of the birth of Christ were in my mind. And then when three crows showed up in the painting, I knew they were the Magi, come to give gifts to the newborn.
