The Artful Auni

Working away finally on this #portrait #commission. Lots of thinking things out with my paintbrush! I’m very happy with the way things are shaping up! . . .... #art #artist #artsy #artoftheday #fineart #artcollecting #painting #canadianart #originalartwork #artforsalebyartist #creative #acrylicpainting #ottawaartist #artwork #artgallery #contemporarypainting #portraitpainting #visualart #impressionistic #wip #artistsoninstagram #instapainting #instagramart #commissionedartmatters #workinprogress

With the help of my sourdough mentor, aka my son’s partner, I’ve upped my game in a big way!

Link in bio! I’m excited to let you know that I’ll be helping to support the care of wild patients recovering at Toronto Wildlife Centre! Their 10 Wild Days: Holiday Auction is an important fundraising initiative and it went live today! For the next ten days we’ll be able to bid on amazing gifts for family and friends (and beat the holiday rush!) with all proceeds going directly towards the rescue and rehabilitation of sick, injured and orphaned wildlife. From turtles receiving surgery after being hit by cars to this young red fox above recovering from mange, every dollar raised will make a big difference for an animal’s life. The online auction runs until November 12th, so join me in some fun festive bidding all to help our wild neighbours!

I know I’ve been MIA. The life of a weekend artist! Between work, house, and family, sometimes it’s hard to work on my art practice. Today I got a little further on this new portrait commission, which is good! I’m super happy that the subject is posing with a cow! Life is good when human and animal portraiture meet . . .... #art #artist #artsy #artoftheday #fineart #artcollecting #painting #portrait #canadianart #originalartwork #artforsalebyartist #creative #pencilsketch #acrylicpainting #ottawaartist #artwork #artgallery #contemporarypainting #portraitpainting #commission #visualart #impressionistic #wip #artistsoninstagram #instapainting #instagramart #commissionedartmatters #workinprogress

Just reconfigured the shelving in my studio to make for a better balance between art practice and graphic design practice. Now to make some art!
