Kenogamisis Raven


Brian J. Michon
“Kenogamisis Raven”
Acrylic and some casein
24″ X 36″

“This past summer we went exploring around town and ended up at Kenogamisis Lake in Geraldton Ontario. I had a lot of fun painting this but the water really tested my patience, which is what attracted me to do this painting in the first place. It started off only as a landscape but was suggested by a good friend (Shirley) that I should add the raven and from that point there was no turning back.”

Susan Rudoler
“Baby Elk”

$100 (Canadian)
Inspired by Nic Vincent’s photo Banff, Alberta

Susan is a self taught artist who first discovered her passion for drawing and painting when she retired and moved to Oro-Medonte from Toronto. After some introductory classes from a local Barrie artist she began growing her skills in graphite, watercolour, pastel, coloured pencil and acrylic. Susan enjoys painting a variety of subjects in a realistic style and especially enjoys the challenge of portraiture. She loves watching as the paper starts to breathe life as she attempts to capture the subject’s personality and likeness. Susan was a member of the Executive board of OFAA for 3 years and is still a member of Orillia Fine Arts Association.

Raven

“Raven”
Scratchboard with watercolour added.

This is one of two works Margaret sold at the 2019 Elected Members Juried Art Show at Vida Viva Gallery, Pointe Claire, Quebec.

Margaret’s newest scratchboard is another amazing work. An admirer said that they thought it was a sculpture because of the three dimensionality of the image.
