Eclectic Studio - Tammy Morrison-Koenig

Anything can be used as a substrate when you are feeling creative. In our home, we strive to reduce our carbon footprint as much as possible. So after 3 years of my husband working for a lumber yard, I had a light bulb go off. Some days that light bulb doesn't turn on at all so I'm pretty happy with these short-lived moments. LOL :D I got him to bring me a bunch of finished off cuts primed them up with Gesso and went to town with a few quick little paintings. Still life trio of peppers acrylic painting. 4.75 * 4.75 * 1.75 inch acrylic on sealed hemlock black painted sides

Hi everyone. Well TGIF. Early in the week I had to take my computer into the doctor - It wasnt feeling very well. I think it came down with a virus. ;) lol But it is back up and running, so that means back to work. :) Spring is in the air, and there is a little more of a hop to everyones step so I decided to go big and bold. Well big compared to what I have been doing. :) 12 * 16 inch acrylic on stretched canvas Open Edition Prints and Cards available Contact me for more info Happy Painting

A little something I started yesterday 16 * 20 acrylic on stretched canvas. So far so good but I am a little stuck, to much open space in the middle ground, may add a sheep or two or maybe make it into a golf course. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Happy Painting Tammy

I was inspired to paint this big momma elephant by a reference photo taken by "exfordy" over at Flicker. Its not a position that I would want to be in. According to the story, the week before a Japanese tourist was killed after getting out of his car to take pictures and admire these magnificent animals. We have the same problem here in Banff.. ppl getting out of their cars to admire the baby bear cubs, or the cute little baby moose. What they dont understand is they have very protective Momma's close by and they will give you a licken if your not paying attention. LOL Anyways this is another miniature 2.75 * 2.75 inch artist grade acrylics on stretched canvas initialed on front and signed/dated on back included in sale is a miniature display easel $25.00 ***FREE SHIPPING WITHIN NORTH AMERICA

SOLD The little Namibian girl I painted up the other day looks like she needed a little company ;) so I would paint her up a friend. I just love this little guys expression of sucking in his bottom lip. 2.5 * 3.5 in Watercolor on 140lb CP paper $20.00 plus shipping

I haven't done a watercolor portrait in a few months so I thought I would stick with the mini theme I have been dabbling with and try out an artist trading card format 2.5 * 3.5 inch for this little girl. Hope you enjoy :) Watercolor on 140lb CP paper

Another mardi gras mask - this time in miniature form. 2.75 * 2.75 inch acrylic on stretched canvas includes a mini display easel

This mini painting was inspired by a garden statue located at the Butchart gardens in Victoria, BC. This statue was recessed into a wall and surrounded by lush greenery and gorgeous flowers which is a beautiful contrast against each other. 2.75 * 2.75 in acrylic on stretched canvas initialed on front and signed/dated on back
