Getting Back to Normal Here....

A House in My Town

This is not a picture of my house. It is just a lovely home in my town. I was quite taken with it. I thought you might be too! I am finally back to painting and it feels great. I just posted a new painting for auction on Ebay. http://tinyurl.com/3utg7sz It ends next Thursday the first.

It is a weird time of year....

It is like we hardly know what to do with ourselves.  School hasn't started but, a lot of fall activities have.   We are trying to gear up for next year while not wanting to let go of the summer. It was glorious.

I am working on a new website devoted to all American Folk Art. What it is, it's history, famous artists and contemporary artists, and galleries. It will be very comprehensive. Like nothing that is available already. Not promoting my work just American Folk Art.  Let me know what you would like to see there.

The picture above is a scene from my husbands last fishing trip to Canada.

Painting Dreaming Painting Dreaming.....

I had a wonderful weekend visiting some childhood haunts of mine. It was a lot of fun sharing them with my kids. It brought back many feelings of my childhood of freedom. I know it is weird because, I didn't have much freedom as a child. Now I know that I did. The freedom of stress, worry and fear. It was a time to just enjoy the day. Each day is a gift. This week I am going to try to capture that feeling of freedom. This painting takes me back there. 

Where has the time gone?????

I am happy to be back in the studio painting. Sometimes I think I get bored or less than motivated painting the same type of painting all the time, no matter how well received they are. When this happens I always start crafting or painting something totally different. This time it was ghosts and buttons. Then, like clock work, I find myself drawn to the primitive folk art again. What is meant to be, shall be. It feels good to be selling paintings again. Blessings, Kori

I have been busy, busy, busy here at the studio

 

Take a look at this. I just had this divine inspiration to do something different this week for my big painting.  I really don't know how it will go over but, I really love it.  The hand with the eye in it represents reality. What we see and feel using our brains. The mother and baby inside the heart represents our soul, the purest love that we have is our connection to our Higher Power.  The rose and butterfly represent our spiritual connection to the other side.  It is different than the paintings that I usually do but, the summer is for experimenting for me.  I even used oil paints which is very different for me. I loved it!

Blessings,

This is really something different for me!!!

What I love about this time of year is that I have the time to experiment with different kinds of paintings. My husband is a very active hunting enthusiast.  So, last weekend we visited a skull mount taxidermist. While, my daughter Autumn was picking up her mount. I wondered around a bit.  I found it very interesting seeing all the skulls there lined up together by species. It was just amazing to me to see how alike they were but, at the same time so different and intricate. Each hole and curve of the bone has a reason. Once again, the organic line is hard at work everywhere. I created this little piece to remember my day.
