Frida Kahlo Theme Original Painting

Canvas

LORALAI Original Art

This Acrylics & Oils Artwork is something I developed from Alice in Wonderland's Queen of Hearts in a Casino like setting with Frida smoking a cigarette in a long holder, with the smoke linkering in the air to make numbers, and a playing card motif brought forward by the deep bright red background, where heart symbols have been sort of stamped into the color. This creates a nice texture for the foreground, which is very visible with the Oil pastel overlay. Frida's lips are shaped in a heart symbol, using my signature brilliant red hue.

This is available on my eBay Store

BOHEMIAN BLUE

Really felt like a mixed media, and I got a package in the mail

from one of my favorite artists

who lives near San Francisco

and sent Art Mags, papers, Travel, etc.

One of the papers is called the North Bay Bohemian.

The altered art I use in this creation is the cover

of one of the issues.

I love to use OOAK items in my collage.

Lots of pretty items in this one include some shiny violet fabric,

 a fringe of pearly hearts,

matching pearly buttons

and sheet metal - a find from Habitat for Humanity's ReSale

store.

Much more, you just hafta see it!

This is on my personal eBay auction page,

art-by-loralai (link right column)

For Auction, or Buy-it-Now!



This is one of my Favorites!

Fastastic, Magical, so much Light!

Its even prettier at night, when the light plays on the

Pearly and metallic paint.

A trip to the Vet can be a nervous experience for a Kitty

but this Kitty Doctor is so wonderful

Kitty is just so content to watch the Golden Butterflies!

Abstract flowery things and a chimney with the prettiest smoke,

this one is Just Terrific, I think!

NIGHT SHIFT

Making their rounds, this dedicated pair are braving the Night,

delivering comfort to their Feral Friends.

A Cat Lady is a very special person.

SECOND STAR

a little homage to my Fav Disney, Peter Pan.

I believe the phrase is something like 'Second Star to the Right, and Straight on till Morning'.

Lots of detail in this Blue Cat Series painting.

partial images of stamp with clock, flourishes near the center of the dial, many layers of transparent Acrylics, oil pastels add shading, magical shimmery fairy dust and special effects.

Very dimensional and charming, a lovely one-of-a-kind

A WALK IN THE PARK

Auctioning on ebay - ArtObjects

Hello Everybody! I've a new painting in the Blue Cat Series - the title is A WALK IN THE PARK. I really felt like I Lived in this one for awhile. Took a walk along the water, enjoyed the view of the bridge, vaguely visible in the background. What I want to convey in this Blue Cat Series is a sense of having dreamt the whole thing - as if I knew this beautiful girl and her Blue Cat, and they were so very real, but then I awoke and realized it was all a Dream! My daughter says the girl looks like Audrey Hepburn.

CollectArtwork

I just LOVE this Art Group. SOOOOO happy i finally got the nod.  On ebay, the name has changed from FindFolkArt to CollectArtwork, mainly to more widely suggest the variety of Artwork for sale, and also to help with search engines.  Soon, there will be wonderful changes for this group, and i think the sky's the limit.

See My Art (Loryia Bond) there as well as about 35 other gifted, talented, diverse Artists.

Mixed Media Artwork for CollectArtwork

The Kitchen Windowsill is a perfect place for displaying variety of plants and flowers. A rosebud could stand in a slender vase, right beside a sprig of ivy, a tomato seedling, or a Venus Fly Trap!  These 2 Art Cards (ACEO) are part of my Series called 'Kitchen Window'. My inspiration is easily seen all around the neighborhood, where a plethora of knick-knacks, potted plants, vases, keepsakes, family photos and more adorn each and every Kitchen Window.

These will  be available on ebay at member: FindFolkArt (FFA). Also, if you want to contact my email, I'm sure we can arrange a sale! ;)  Acrylics including metallics for extra shimmer, glass paint, ink and stamps are used to create these Canva-paper Originals.

Find Folk Art !

Silhouette Witch Painting with Black Cat and Moon Beams

So excited about this Silhouette Painting! It turned out exactly as I imagined, which isnt ALWAYS the case, sometimes my idea changes as I begin the effort, I see some possibility that would seem to work better, or realize that an idea just cant be realized.

However, this time the Moon Beams, background trees, even the insinuation of a cloud over the Moon turned out exactly as I wanted. Yummy. Its not a big piece, only 13x17, which still isnt exactly Miniature! The signature is on the Frame portion, not the inside painting, the Hat does seem to hang on the tree branch, and the feeling of joy and abandon is conveyed in the painting as I wanted, so I just Truly HOPE that somebody else sees it too, then I will feel Understood, and that my effort is worthwhile... So, we will see. This item is for buy-it-now style on ebay, instead of Auction format, which is really what I am doing with all of my Artwork that I offer there now.

The Auction thing isnt really intended for the Art, at least I dont think so. I could put a Reserve on it if I didnt want to sell until it got to a certain price. Thats an idea to explore soon maybe. How about you Artists out there? How do you feel about Reserve and Buy-it-Now as opposed to Auction format - LMK ! chat at admin@loralai.com or loryia.bond@gmail.com.

XX/OO !!!

Do Your Dance

Thats the title of my new Mermaid. She is soooo shiny and sparkly. Very happy with this one.

Mixed Media Collage

I have been so busy y'all. It seems like i need about another 4 hours each day to get everything done! I have my little cleaning jobs 2 or 3 times a week, plus my spoiled rotten family which consists of my Full Grown Hubby and my Full Grown Daughter both of whom are completely helpless. I am making paintings, watching demo videos and learning to do stuff, playing with beeswax and transfer medium, having a great time, and then there is the LISTINGS!! They seem to hog up so much of my Time!!GeeZooie!! I HAVE been selling a painting here and there, and my Seaglass Mermaid altered Art necklaces are doing pretty good. This means more time in paperwork, shipping, and replenishing depleted supplies which is Always happening!!! I try to knock off by 9-9:30 pm, then I'm back at it as soon as i get my peepers open, and a cup o'joe in my hand. Man is it a blast, but I also LOVE adding pics and words to my Blog too! Its kinda like my 'down' time. Its a nice deep breath. Now, I gotta check my sales sites - I'm doing a showcase on Etsy today! Bye!!!

NEW PRIMS! Beeswax Sealed

Hey ! I have been so busy with the art, I have started trying to hide the face that I'm spending like 12 hours a day on it. I dont even eat until really late when i consider myself 'done' for the day. It is an obsession i admit. But I've done some sales! Even an etsy sale which I was sure would NEVER happen. Ebay also! I'm making these Mermaid Altered ARt pendants from my old painting pics. They are doing well i think... Thank God for the success, I hope only to be worthy of the blessing the Good Lord keeps piling on me.
