I finally got to paint this from my digital manipulation, Don’t Give Up Searching . I’m so pleased with the result. I used a few different textures and oil paint and made the eye brown rather then blue so that the image was unified in pallet to suit a college project so that I could paint this particular piece without abandoning duty. / UPDATE- / In 2008 this painting was STOLEN. / It was being displayed in Bentley Pines Restaurant with a group of other art from fellow students. toward the end of the year the restaurant went though refurbishments and stored the works in a disabled toilets :/ we were asked to collect the work but this painting had already gone before it could be collected. Ive contacted all the people in charge and been forwarded around like a telstra customer on hold and still haven’t gotten it back. :(
/ My ‘First Tree’ is officially published in the coffee table book Artists of the West / For information on purchasing a signed copy of the book, go to Carrie Glenn Studios Thanks! First Tree was Featured in Lifestyles Magazine as part of an article about the Artists of the West coffee table book I am also honored to announce my painting First Tree was a part of the Rialto Towers two week art exhibit in Melbourne, Australia in of July 2007 Acrylic and pastel on illustration paper. (1995) This is truly the first tree I ever painted, the need to paint and create was something brewing so strongly inside I had to do something about it. Yet my resources were very limited, I grabbed the only paint I had any access to, a can of my father’s black spray paint, I sprayed it into the lid of the can and used the only paintbrush I owned a cheep nylon brush from a water color kit and created. I then finished my work with the only two pastels I owned brown and black. / Necessity is the mother of invention, or maybe it’s that there is more than one way to skin a cat. (Sorry cat lovers) At any rate I grew up in a home with very few luxuries but I did have a passion to create, always, I had to feed the creativity. So this is a very special piece to me and I hope to you as well. Down through the dark trees, you came and saved me...

This is exactly how it looked in 1989. The ivy stays here year round. It’s weird, because it’s barren outside; winter. But when you step inside (which isn’t hard..you simply step through the wall) it looks like a summer day. Very odd & surreal feeling. Taken last week, standing in the basement looking up at the back door. More from the abandoned farmhouse series soon. :) And Happy New Year everyone!! / It’s 8:37 p.m. here.

I found these Poppy seed pods on our house hunting venture and just loved their shape, colour and texture and taking these photos definitely took my mind off the move! The name of this image came from my kids as they call them tiny honey pots. Enjoy.

Thick in the brush of Montana, there’s a man. Sporting an orange vest, he crouches, perched dangerously in a high oak tree. Far down the mountainside walks the majestic black bear, standing over a stream, preparing to paw some salmon. The hunter takes up his rifle, and stares down the scope. In his circular view, the bear pauses, almost sensing the crosshair. Lowering his weapon, the hunter is overwhelmed by nature. Available in army and brown, Hunter is part of the Sandman Series of Orange Alexander. Sold exclusively on redbubble.

Acrylic on canson paper. Inspired while listening to “Stairway to Heaven” by Led Zeplin! / Theres a lady whos sure / All that glitters is gold / And shes buying a stairway to heaven. / When she gets there she knows / If the stores are all closed / With a word she can get what she came for. / Ooh, ooh, and shes buying a stairway to heaven. Theres a sign on the wall / But she wants to be sure / cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. / In a tree by the brook / Theres a songbird who sings, / Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. / Ooh, it makes me wonder, / Ooh, it makes me wonder. Theres a feeling I get / When I look to the west, / And my spirit is crying for leaving. / In my thoughts I have seen / Rings of smoke through the trees, / And the voices of those who standing looking. / Ooh, it makes me wonder, / Ooh, it really makes me wonder. And its whispered that soon / If we all call the tune / Then the piper will lead us to reason. / And a new day will dawn / For those who stand long / And the forests will echo with laughter. If theres a bustle in your hedgerow / Dont be alarmed now, / Its just a spring clean for the may queen. / Yes, there are two paths you can go by / But in the long run / Theres still time to change the road youre on. / And it makes me wonder. Your head is humming and it wont go / In case you dont know, / The pipers calling you to join him, / Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, / And did you know / Your stairway lies on the whispering wind. And as we wind on down the road / Our shadows taller than our soul. / There walks a lady we all know / Who shines white light and wants to show / How evrything still turns to gold. / And if you listen very hard / The tune will come to you at last. / When all are one and one is all / To be a rock and not to roll. And shes buying a stairway to heaven. / Led Zeplin / / featured in Core [C.O.R.E] / featured in Bagels and Lox – Jewish themed art and writing / featured in the Sisterhood
