“Olivia” Native Fire Dancer Acrylic on Board Original sold (Another similar has been painted)

This is completed, “Olivia” Native Fire Dancer. I hope to create more paintings of Olivia. I started this painting as an abstract using a pallet knife. As I progressed I started to see the line of feathers, then basically saw Olivia. This is the result of that process. As I proceeded on this painting I searched the internet for Native Fire Dancing and found out that there actually was such a thing. I think we all would like to be like Olivia and just let loose and dance …

“Enola” The Visionary 22X28 Acrylic on Canvas

danajanedesigns — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 15:33:37 +0000

This is an abstract painting of a Native American Girl named “Enola”, The Visionary. I took a lot of time deciding her name after I painted it. The name Enola comes from Indian origin meaning alone and “Enola spelled backwards spells alone. Four out of Ten people don’t even see her in this abstract, which really surprises me, but I became a believer when it kept happening. If you do see her, imagine her Invisioning something, and/or viewing in the distance something we can’t see.

This is a 12X12 canvas wrap, Acrylic Painting created with only a pallet knife. I used some gold leaf on it and then a high gloss finish. I recently gave a class to show how to let stress go via painting like this. The key is in the beginning not to think about what your painting just let the painting start out to be something on its own. This is really my most favorite type of painting style. Once you start seeing what the painting might turn out to be then go with it and make the adjustments needed. The Olivia Fire Dancer started out this way. Price $65.00 12X12 1 3/4 sides High Gloss glaze.

“Up-Rooted” 16X20 Oil on Board

danajanedesigns — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 21:14:41 +0000

“Up-Rooted” This painting is a sunflower field that is in a wind storm and has up-rooted itself from the ground. The painting effect I’m aiming for is very old looking. Like the painting itself has weathered and has for many years. In our own lives we go through phases where sometimes we just don’t have any roots to keep us in one place. We’re just floating through life not caring where we land. We have not established our own roots. After a while we do settle down when we have our own family and our own children. By then we’ve weathered the storm more than once but begin to put down our own roots. This is what this painting represents to me the time in our lives when we are just Up-Rooted.
