12″ by 9″ Ink and Watercolor $300
I do wonder what it would be like to move like a snail and carry my house on my back. Simplifying seems a good way to go. So cheers to the small but mighty snail.

Who Designed Your Clothes?
Framed Ink and Watercolor 12″ x 9″ $400
I hope everyone has had a fabulous Thanksgiving week.
We had so much fun this holiday. Our son brought home a college friend from Santa Fe who partook of our typical thanksgiving meal which consists of fish and some type of mollusk. This years it was clams and cod topped off by 3 different pies~pumpkin, lemon meringue and apple.
I am so excited to announce that I have officially started a Facebook page and would love if you hop and over and give it a like. The link is here and if you just click on it, you will be taken to the page where I hope you give it a great big LIKE!
On a super happy note, I have 7 paintings going to new homes this week. 3 paintings have gone to Boston area collectors and one to someone in Asheville, NC. I will be shipping 3 paintings to Montreal once I can package them all! That makes for quite a wonderful week for any artist! I feel very blessed.
I only wish that my mom could travel and were able to spend the holiday with us but she is approaching 88 and travel is not easy for her.
Here’s to December!
Let it bring us much cheer and opportunities to connect with family and friends.
Ptarmigan
I made this very royal looking ptarmigan who is wearing some very gorgeous feathers. This is another 8″ by 8″ Ink and Watercolor on aqua board, for sale for $150 . Sorry the photo is at an angle, but you get the idea!
And if you would like to learn about the ptarmigan you can click here. There are some fabulous photos online of the ptarmigan in Iceland and Alaska, but they are all copyrighted, thus I can’t show you the resemblance.
Partridge in Therapy
PARTRIDGE IN THERAPY!
This gilded partridge was inspired by a magazine cover. My partridge looks as though he might have a hard time flying. He might need therapy to deal with this! This is an 8″ by 8″ Ink and Watercolor on Aqua board. Sold.

Here is a pretty sharp looking guy.
Framed and ready to go!
$150 includes shipping. 8″ by 8″ on aquabord.
Plantation
Can you tell that all the animals are wondering if these two creatures will become a couple? They are also in a delicate tapestry of foliage with a gold background. You can tell it is gold paint by the way it reflects in the painting below.
I framed this in a cherry frame.
This weekend brought fun things. Friday I was out picking grapes with 2 fabulous artist friends, Teresa Mowery of Patina Studio-lovely copper work and Loren Quinn– fabulous custom mosaic and glass tiles. You can check out their work via their links to their names. Teresa knew the owner, and the owner needed help with picking their 2 acres of vineyards. There were about 25 of us picking. We were served a fabulous lunch and all went home with a bottle of wine.
We attended 2 cool Halloween parties and I was planning to pick quince at Rocky Brook Orchard. I love to make quince jam and quince paste. But, it is just too cold today…it even snowed for a while and the wind was howling. Hopefully I will get there Wednesday.
On Sunday I gathered up my piece from the ” BIRDS OF A FEATHER” exhibit at Kathrine Lovell’s Gallery and Studio at Tiverton Four Corners. I will post it in an upcoming blog post. It is a departure from my usual work~so prepare to be surprised.
Plantation is a 12″ by 9″ mixed media framed in a cherry frame.
Plantation is also available as Phone and I Pad covers from Keka cases . I chose Plantation for my phone and I get so many compliments-very nice to hear.
To purchase contact me at susanmedyn(at)cox.net. I am always happy to work out a payment plan. Or click the link below.
Booby Hatch
BOOBY HATCH $400 framed.
I love the little Dr. Suess like lady in pink in this painting. I think the character on the left with the hat could even qualify for a Suess like creature. One thing that the urban dictionary states is that the Booby Hatch was a hatch meant to keep a small sea-bird named the boobie from flying below deck. One type actually has beautiful blue feet~I must add them to one of my paintings!
Take this title however you like but it is breast cancer awareness month and I am donating 1/4 of the proceeds of all October sales to Breastcancer.org
They are an amazing organization that provides support and information for women through all stages of breast cancer. I have met so many amazing women through them and want to give back for all they have given to me. Everyone deserves a fighting chance and breastcancer.org has led so many women to seek life saving treatment that they would not have known about except for this incredible site.

Monkey Business
Monkey Business $110 including shipping. 6″ x 6″ Framed
Did you ever want to create a little monkey business, play tricks- not like the 3 Stooges, but stir up a little trouble. We have had a few great April Fool’s tricks in the past 2 years. Two years ago we put up signs that said “Fresh Eggs” and left several dozen eggs in a cooler with a cigar box in front of our friends. Last year we placed a number of pink construction flags in the yard of a friend and made some construction markings. Our friends had the night before diverted a neighbors water-spout and worried that they neighbors had called the town. Haven’t thought up next years April Fools.
Fish Finder
I wanted to post a lovely little 6 by 6 fish painting already framed. $100 SOLD
Speaking of fish, we were reeling in the skip jacks today.
Looks like we will be having fish for dinner for the next 3 days.
And if you are thinking about purchasing art, this is a nice time to get ahead of the holiday rush.
