"SUNBATHERS" OIL ON COPPER SHEILA WEDEGIS ART


"Sunbathers"
oil on copper

I may just have to do a series of these sunbathers. I bathed this one in pinks, oranges and yellows..and oh yes..green.  Green is my least "fav" color and a devil to control. Ask my students and my friends and they will tell you my favorite color is shades of lavender to  deep purple.  I'll have to do a companion piece to this one in those tones. Goodbye green!!! 

I finished this one at home today and had happy Labs on either side of me. When Sophie, my spirit girl now, was here she would actually pout when I left for the studio  and sulk for days if I left for a show. 

Oil on copper panel and framed. Ready to hang!

S&H included 
$350.00

Thanks for stopping by!! Warmly, Sheila

NEW OIL ON COPPER IN PROGRESS SHEILA WEDEGIS ART


In progress oil on copper. We live near the Turkey Creek Sanctuary and kayak or walk along the boardwalk through the Hammock.  Along the way you will meet many turtles crawling up on the floating logs to get some sun.  I take many photos. So thought maybe start using them as reference.

I'll put a third little guy in this piece eventually. Three subjects have more interest to the viewer than two.

I'll be back in the studio on Monday. Let's see where I go with this one.

Warmly, Sheila

AN IMPORTANT CAUSE

  A young mother, I personally know, young, was recently diagnosed with ALS.  She wants to stay anonymous, uncomfortable with having to be helped and also, her children do not know.  I am having a tough time wrapping my head around it so I can only wildly imagine how she is trying to cope with it all.

 This site was just started to raise money to help the medical costs ill become horrendous as time goes on and also to help keep some normalcy in their household.

  If you could just take a peek I would appreciate it. If you are not able to donate then please keep them in your prayers!!
Warmly, Sheila
