I am working on some new paintings for Open Studios next weekend.
Another in the Susan in Wonderland series.
I have been working up a series of funny bunny paintings that I can also use for repeating patterns. I’m fond of the two cats floating in the poppies and the Egyptian styled leaves on the lower right.
6″ x 6″ Ink and Watercolor on Aquabord $100.
Happy New Year! I am participating in Leslie Byrd Saeta’s 30 in 30 but have set a goal to make small works in between making larger paintings for a group exhibit in Poland this Spring. Hop on over to Leslie’s page to see the works of 360 artists who are participating in this painting challenge.
My life has been quite busy. I thought I had the past week off but ended up working one day with clients in crisis and then spent a few days in upstate NY helping my mom out after a surgery. She is 87 and is doing great. The 7 hour trip home though was through a pelting rainstorm. Luckily we were able to stop off at a good friend’s for a visit. This year brings many changes in my life and I am planning to relish them.

So poor Bitsy has broken her leg and had to have serious surgery. First it was the ER and a cast, but that didn’t work so off to an orthopedic surgeon for a plate and pins and circlage wire to heal her mysterious break (she won’t tell us what happened). We have been tending her day and night and thought she was on the mend, but the vet bills have mounted and she now is now sneezing and has a fever. Back to the vet again. This time more x-rays and a broad spectrum antibiotic. I am having a cart sale ( cat + art) in hopes of making a dent in her vet bill. I am listing a few of my works at prices that will never be this low again. And Bitsy, well she is our baby and we sure want her to get well soon.
First picture is of Bisty resting in bed and the second is today waiting for the vet.
Please take a look and consider buying a painting with more than one purpose. Each work is $150.00 and since I can only add one Paypal button at the bottom of my page, please either email me at susanmedyn@cox.net with which one you are interested in and I can send you an invoice or add a note next to your information via Paypal on which painting you are purchasing.
Oh No, Not To A Grecian Urn! SOLD! THANK YOU CAROLINE!
Oh No, Not To A Grecian Urn! is inspired by the Cycladic creatures that were on the amazing vases we saw at the Staatliche Antikensammlungen in Munich. We had an intense museum filled visit there prior to going to the opening in Poland.
These creatures want to party and are ready to dance under the summer sky. The blue background is not lighter on the right-just photo quality picking up the light. This is a 7″ by 5″ Ink and watercolor on Aqua Board, lovingly made.
Elephant Walk SOLD! Thank you Rosemary!
Sometimes I want there to be lots of interaction going on with my creatures but in this painting I decided to let the creatures speak for themselves. I hope you enjoy the tamed wildness of sea anemones intersecting with jungle creatures and giant sized poppies. Did you notice those cut little marsupials hanging down? And it is even framed in a wood shadow box frame!
WHAT BIG EARS YOU HAVE! SOLD! THANK YOU HEATHER!
This is a beautiful new 7″ by 5″ painting that I am adding into today’s blog. I loved the owl starring at the cute mercat like bunny. This painting was just finished and normally would be selling for $250 like my other works of this size but in my Bitsy vet quest, it is here framed in a black frame (which makes it pop right out) for $150.
The World Goes Round and Round
The World Goes Round And Round! SOLD! THANK YOU MARY SUE!
Well this speaks for itself. This little aqua board is 6″ by 6″ and framed in a maple shadow box frame. The background is painted gold, although that just doesn’t translate well into a photo. My Bitsy world seems to be going round and round to the vet.
Hide and Seek! SOLD Thank you Jill and Donald!
This is Arthur, Bitsy’s loving little buddy who is so confused right now. She loves to sit in the grass and watch the birds. Since Bitsy broke her leg there is no more life outdoors for Arthur. He is actually going a little nuts because of it and is very puzzled by poor Bitsy’s cone and shaved skin. Arthur is also framed in a black shadow box frame.
Are They A Couple?
I think by the cats smile we can be pretty sure they are going to get along fine. This is a 6″ by 6″ Ink and Watercolor on Aqua Board glowing with color.
To all my blogging and animal loving friends, I would love if you would share this post. The more people who see this, the closer we get to keeping up with Bitsy’s bills. And of course she loves you all!
P.S. If you would like to help Bitsy but can’t afford a painting check out my card page…I don’t have them all posted there but I promise you 6 lovely ones for the price of 5.
