City Rooster by Kay Wyne

City Rooster

30" x 30" Oil on canvas, framed in gold leaf moulding.

City Rooster traveled this week to The Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg, Texas.

Last weekend John and I met Mary Katherine Fickel, owner of The Good Art Company of Fredericksburg. She immediately was taken with my birds nest, rooster and chicken paintings. Mary Katherine had made a sale earlier in the day, and hung Only The Lonely in the gallery on the spot! I am excited to add The Good Art Company as a gallery representing my art.

Mary Katherine with Only The Lonely, an original palette knife painting. I am excited about my new relationship with a The Good Art Company, and wish Mary Katherine the best of luck for tonight's Art Walk. Thanks for viewing this blog and the art shown. Have an artful day....Kay at 214-532-0325 or kay@kwyne.com

Robin's Nest..Small (6x6) palette knife painting by Peg Whitacre

After painting a 9x12 version of the robin's nest I chose to make a smaller one as well.  For some unknown reason both these paintings receive a lot of attention (no buyers yet but I live in hope!) both online and at shows.  Something about painting things from nature seems to connect with people.  I plan to try some different types of nests as well as the birds who occupy them.  Right now I have a pair of Tree Swallows nesting in a box on my deck.  They are not very welcoming to humans!  Trying to sit outside or allow the cat to play on the deck can be hazardous to both our health!  Having been dive-bombed several times I figured it's easier to wait this out than to be chased from my own property.  If they ever show their young'uns I will be sure to photograph them.  Enjoy the robin's nest!
