"Deconstructed Flower Field" by Karla Nolan, FRAMED glass painting


ALERT: You are about to view art of a different nature. These are paintings on glass -- that is, painted directly onto glass with specially formulated glass paints. They are always framed for the protection of the glass. The paints often are transparent and sometimes opaque, giving a stained glass appearance under good light. They, like all fine art, should not be hung in direct sunlight. The photographs do not do them justice -- my colors are very vibrant. Close ups are available, just e-mail me for information (see below). In most instances, click on the actual image for an even larger image to view -- you'll see lots of different items such as marbelization, transparent or opaque parts of the work -- try it and see! Commissions are accepted.

It seems to me, and I want to preface this by saying that not every artist would agree with this, that experimentation is crucial in the growth of an artist. I find that if I don't "play", I don't grow. The idea of pulling apart the view of a flower field could be an interesting bit of work. Take the sky away, pull away the actual flowers, their stems and leaves, the grasses that grow beneath and what do you have? A deconstructed flower field. Hopefully it encourages one to rethink what one sees. Does that work for you?

"Deconstructed Flower Field" approximately 8"x10" measured edge to edge glass, sold FRAMED as shown for protection of glass, $345 includes s&h in N. America, Paypal preferred, click button below or write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more details or a close up photo

Commissions are accepted.

I had painted a similar glass painting over a year ago and just had the need to return to the same subject matter and change it up a bit. This piece is more "stained glass"-like. To me experimentation is key to producing artworks. Without it, I feel like my art could easily become stagnant. The frame is one of my favorites, sort of "old world" -- a light touch of sgrafritto, if you will. (Oh dear, did I spell that correctly? If not, please forgive me.) Red poppies never tire me and stained glass has always intrigued.

"Winning Threesome" 10"x8" measured edge to edge glass, sold FRAMED for the protection of the glass (and you save money!), $340 includes s&h in N. America, Paypal preferred, click button below or feel free to write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information or a close up photograph

I just could not resist this title! I remember vaguely driving through the mountains in either Wyoming or Montana or maybe even here in Colorado, noting two birds sitting on a telephone line write at dusk and I wondered if they were chatting about their day. If so, maybe this is what they said! Who knows? More "So...." birds and dusk coming up soon!!! Too much fun....

To me, this is truly a quintessential sunset (hence the name!). Sunsets come and go daily, if we're not laden with sometimes heavy cloud cover -- but they always have the night just hanging over them. Luckily, they sit in my mind always so I can pull back to the time I last saw one....and I spice it up with a bit of imagination! That's the fun part!

"Quintessential Sunset", 8"x10" measured edge to edge glass, sold framed as shown, will be in the "Landscaped" exhibit at Graffia Gallery, Spring Lake, Michigan; contact Linda Dimitroff after May 7th if you are interested in purchasing this painting; retail is $340, s&h to be added at time of sale.
The gallery website is www.graffiagallery.com

Here's a little story for you: There is a legend about the flower, anemone, otherwise known as windflowers. the word is derived from the Greek anemos, which means wind. Their long stems sway with the breezes. In Greek mythology when Adonis, who was loved by Aphrodite for his beauty was killed by a boar which he had wounded, Aphrodite (who was the goddess of love) bent over his body, weeping. It was where her tears fell to the ground that the anemones first sprang. Isn't that a lovely but sad story?

"Anemones: The Tears of Aphrodite", 8"x10" framed glass painting (measured edge to edge glass), $340 includes s/h in N. America, Paypal preferred, click button below or write KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information; thanks for looking!
