Bobcat Ridge by Mary Landis #62609


Oil on canvas
Size: 8x10
Price: $100
S&H: $11
Bobcat Ridge is NW of Loveland in the foot hills. It was a great day for painting, the type of day that makes me know I'm blessed to be an artist. As we have had frequent rain storms, the various shades of green were vivid. The clouds indicating yet more rain to come, which it did.It rained three times while I was there, however I was nice and dry under the picnic shelter.

High Waters by Mary Landis #62209


Oil on board
Size: 12X16
Price: $200
S&H: $10
This was painted at Twin Sister's Lakes on a very comfortable sunny afternoon. The lakes were full with spring water runoff and many trees on the shoreline were wading in water; another perfect subject for a painting. I did, however, get rained on with one of those predicted afternoon mountain showers, very refreshing, but very wet.

Snow Range Plein Aire by Mary Landis #61109


Oil on Canvas
Size: 8X10
Price: $95
S&H: $10
This was one of the plein aire paintings I created while visiting Snowy Range in Wyoming. Even though it was in June, snow was plentiful and many roads were still closed. The air was fresh and crisp as were the snowy mountain vistas. Needless to say, I didn't want to leave but my friends and I were rained out.

work for life

Today, photographing older work from a few years ago... This piece is part of a large movement of my work based on migration and prayer flags.Birds become a symbol of ourselves and a sort of prayer flag, as in Tibetan symbols of offerings for the world carried by the wind. We, as immigrants, movers, travelers, beings of constant change; we are like mobile prayer flags. We have the power to move across this earth as offerings of peace, compassion, and love.

These ideas are still the power behind my present work. Practicing in meditative, repetitive drawings and making flocks of birds from different materials. These represent a practice in quietness and receptivity. These represent my and, I believe, humanity's capacity to live as offerings of goodness and trust.

Ballerina #4 is the last of this series, hopefully more to come in the future.
This is the season to go outdoors and compile nature's colors on my brush and layer them on my canvas, if the weather cooperates, sometimes even if it doesn't.
