Origami Ladies & Ladies *SOLD

Our famous Lady Slipper beauties try to hide but they are not very good at it. These little slippers live near our home. They taunted me to paint them. I kept saying no until one day - they appeared more like tribal warriors and I just couldn't resist.

I sketched them in the same sitting before painting them later with an acrylic brushed ink. I wanted a more organic style for one and architectural lines for the second. Both pieces are on the small side. Sizes are about 5" x 10". These pieces have sold.

Nature Makes Shoes for Lil Ladies •SOLD

This was a fun stylized painting with all it's mingling lines and layers of color. This year we had an abundance of beautiful Lady Slipper.  I just wanted to pick em....since they are protected....by the fairies that own them...and the State of Minnesota...I decided to paint them.

Nature Makes Shoes for Lil Ladies is an 18" x 24" acrylic painting on a beautiful rich linen canvas, stretched over 1.5" stretcher bars. She is available at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN   218-547-3729
