Persistence-Three Fold Prayer series

by Amanda, posted in Abstract, acrylic, Art, Artist, canada, commission, creative, events, female artist, For Sale, God/Religion, Paintings, photos, Series

A day late but as promised.

Here is #1 “Persistence” of a 3 part series on prayer. Each piece is 11″ x 15″.

The series is based on the 3 key aspects of prayer as mentioned in Luke chapter 11.

I’ll try to do post the rest of the series over the next few days.

I’m also working on some blank greeting cards with my artwork as the cover as well as some unique hand painted bookmarks. I’ll post some examples as I get them finished.  I’m also hoping to update with a list of prices and a gallery highlighted the various items for sale and of course, they’ll all be available to purchase at the upcoming trade show.

Stay tuned!

Cheers,

Amanda

Three Fold Prayer & Thanksgiving

by Amanda, posted in Art, Artist, canada, commission, events, female artist, For Sale, God/Religion, ideas, Paintings, photos, Series

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to you all!

I spent all of yesterday baking, cooking and painting. Fun!

So what did I get accomplished you might ask?

Well, I made two pumpkin pies, baked some yams and made stuffing.

Oh and I also finished the watercolor on the “Three Fold Prayer” series.

I was able to finish the writing on the first piece “Persistence” however I haven’t had time to take a picture yet.

You’ll just have to wait until my next post.

Here’s a look at the recently added watercolor layer. Continue reading “Three Fold Prayer & Thanksgiving” →

Three fold prayer-edited

Alright so after testing out the 195gms paper I find myself un-impressed.

So I’ve decided to re-do the series on the same paper I did the “Life Simplified” series on.

Same size and everything so instead of being 9″x12″ they’ll be 11″x15″ approx.

I’ve also changed the last image to something more suitable.

The series will be based on the three fold concept of prayer presented in Luke 11: 1-13.

Persistence, Promise, Provision

I’ll update once I’ve added the color.

Cheers,

A

Happened, Going to Happen, Happening

Lots seems to be happening around here even though I sometimes fail to realize it.

Here’s a look at what’s happened, going to happen and happening.

Happened-My art showcase at Edmonton Jam Space finished Oct 4th so I picked up my paintings from Jonny on the weekend. Things have picked up for him too so he hasn’t had a chance to set up the next artist for display. Those walls are going to look some bare. He offered to have me back sometime so I may set something up for the future. I did however leave him with a “Commission Flier” to stick up in case anyone wants their old guitar made over into art.

Going to Happen– Nov 15th, 2008: Shop in the Fort Trade show (I’ve already mentioned this one)

*New*-I have a gallery showing booked at the Dow Centennial Center’s Gallery for the whole month of February 2010. Sure it’s a ways off but hey it gives me LOTS of time to create new pieces and have old ones framed. Either way exciting.

Happening-I currently have 2 abstract paintings, 2 new watercolor series, commissions, and some abstract recycled jewelry on the go. Fun Stuff:

One of the abstract paintings you’ve already had a glimpse at and the other one I’m keeping until it’s finished.

I will give you a peek at one of the new watercolor series I’m working on.

It’s a three piece series titled: “Three Fold Prayer” and will be done in the same style as all my other watercolor pieces such as “Life Simplified”.

Here are the outline drawings and I’ll be adding the watercolor today with the hopes of starting the text on at least one of the pieces. Each piece is 9” x 12” on 195gms weight cotton acid free watercolor paper.

Back to work.

Cheers,

A
