HIDE AND SEEK BY SUSAN MEDYN

y daughter asked me to paint more poppies and I am happy to add these soporific flowers into my paintings.

This is a 5″ by 7″ Ink and Watercolor painting on Aqua Board and includes some of my imaginary plants and creatures. To purchase click on the buy now button or contact me at susanmedyn(at)cox.net

WATCHING YOU BY SUSAN MEDYN

This is my 3rd in a month long project of 30 paintings in 30 days started by Leslie Saeta. I continue to make paintings influenced by the  style of Henri Rousseau. I have 3 large ones and a small one inked in that I am hoping to paint during over the month of January plus several ideas percolating in my head.
This painting is 5 by 7 and is Ink and Watercolor on Aqua Board that I varnish and place in a shadow box. It is for sale for $250.

The Curious Creature or Paws for Reflection by Susan Medyn

I have been working on this piece, The Curious Creature or Paws for Reflection, for the past several days. I wanted to make a painting with a panther in a dense landscape. I am continuing to use ink and watercolor on Aqua Board and have really enjoyed looking through my books by Henri Rousseau while I have been working on this piece. It is nice to be able to varnish these works on board instead of framing them under glass.
This painting is 8″ by 10″ and framed in a black shadow box with a light maple exterior. This painting is for sale for $425. I can expedite shipping for Christmas.

Cool Chicks Undercover

I was looking though one of my books and noticed a black and white 18th century lithograph of 2 chicks with their mom. I decided that I would like to make a painting of 2 little ones with their big fluffy mom Medyn style. The colors really pop in this painting. I find it touching how all animals protect their babies. Having had 2 babes of my own I know how that protective instinct kicks in the second your child is born. Then it is on to a life time of balancing protecting and letting go.
This painting is  an ink and watercolor on 2 inch deep aqua board and is 8″ by 8″. It is ready to hang and is for sale for $200 plus $15.00 shipping. If interested please contact me at susanmedyn@cox.net

My Emu U? by Visionary Artist Susan Medyn

Loving this cuddly little creation of mine. Now what size would it really be? Had a great time yesterday meeting with an interior designer who came to buy some work. Ended up realizing we had a lot in common artistically. She used to own a gallery in Newport, RI and we plan to get together with our spouses for a Sunday afternoon sitting at the shore and watching the sail boats go by Mt. Hope Bay. She lives right under a beautiful bridge that is lit up at night. We can see it when we swim from our little beach.
