Aussie Joker..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

These are my all time favorite Aussie birds, I just adore them. They cackle all the time in the treetops, and it's always what I remember the most about waking up...  their chuckles. 

Once one starts, that sets them all off. So the Aussie bushland is constantly 'LAUGHING' at you..... Very funny!

This image is is a pastel on velour paper.

Treetop Rascals..Pastel..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

This pastel is done on black velour paper. 

I rarely use black paper, although the drama of it speaks for itself. 

However, it is extremely difficult to get the lights and darks to read on this surface, especially with VELOUR PAPER.

The subject is of Lorikeets or as they are called in Australia, LORRIES.. 

Little imps which fly all over the eastern regions of Australia and are forever present in the treetops, calling to one another. The colors are truly amazing!

I hope I did them justice here.

This pastel is unframed and measures 9" x 15".

$155 plus S/H

Whirling Dervish.Semi-Abstract......Pastel..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews

I began this with a pour of watercolor and acrylics on an Ampersand board.
At the time of the pour, I had no idea what I wanted to paint, so I decided to just play with the liquid media.

When it naturally dried, I began to wade through my photos, and decided to use KOI as my muse having watched and photographed tons of these fish on Maui on my last trip there.

I used my pastel pencil to draw the shapes into the painted areas, and then proceeded to overlay my pastels to retrieve the fish.

This is a large painting, 24" x 36" and is unframed. I hope you like it..

$500 Plus S/H ( contiguous USA. only).
