Seashell

August 27th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue


Seashell 5 x 7 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

Here’s yesterday’s completion. I’ve been wanting to paint this shell for a long time and will use it again in different works. A colleague of mine recently went out east to visit the Maritimes and hearing of this put me in the mood for a seashell. We’re also considering a trip out to the east coast, some time next year, so I’m sure I’ll collect a whole slew of shells and reference photos then! Until then, I’m left with this and my dreams. . . This piece is for sale for $50.00 CAD. Now, on to the next piece, a silver goblet. Thanks for looking!

Dreaming

August 26th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue


Dreaming 5 x 7 original acrylic on board Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

Here is the first painting for my new study project. I call this one Dreaming. The horse wasn’t actually dreaming since it was busy being part of a rodeo, but I thought it was a fitting name once the painting was done.

I was without a computer for a few days, so having this extra time to paint was great. It was so great that I’m imposing a computer fast on myself. I will still come online, but I’m committing myself to keep it brief, do what I must, and then paint. Not being online so much or doing computer work allowed me, or forced me, to stay busy in the studio, and that’s a great thing! It also feels great to work on smaller pieces again. These are studies, quick paintings, meant to improve my skills as an artist. I haven’t done these exercises in so long! It’s all a learning curve with art, just as in life, and the learning must never end if one wants to be true to their art, and themselves.

One more painting got completed today, a seashell, and another is almost done. I will be posting the other tomorrow, so do come back! These small works are for sale, for $50.00 CDN, so it’s an excellent way to collect original art!

Cat Painting

August 24th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Petit plaisir 11 x 14 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

Voila! Here’s my newest piece, a painting of my cat taking a rest in the warm glow from the window. This girl is 14 years old, and one very cranky cat! She’s a Calico, so they’re naturally cranky by nature, and this one has been this way since she was a baby. I’ve had her a loooonnggg time! But she does have her sweet side when she wants, and she is a beautiful cat. She epitomizes the saying, “Don’t call me I’ll call you!” attitude of cats that they’re so well known for.

I called this piece “Petit plaisir”, which is French for simple pleasure. I commented on Facebook the other day about my enjoying sharing watermelon with my Shihtzu and saying it was one of life’s simple pleasures. This inspired the title for this piece, and perhaps more? A series maybe? Who knows where life and art will lead me.

Today also marks the start of my new painting endeavour. As previously mentioned, I’ll be painting many smaller pieces, which will be quick studies and be available for a low price. It’ll be a great opportunity for any person who wants to collect original art to be able to afford to start collecting, and for seasoned collectors to add to their collection. I hope to complete paintings either every day or two, but might start posting them when I have a few. So keep visiting! I do have Paypal available for those interested in purchasing a piece. I have to add it to my new website soon.

In the meantime, I need to get back in the studio. I’m having issues with my computer crashing, so hopefully this will be resolved by next week.
Thank you for dropping in and for taking time to look at my art! See you soon, and until next time, take care!

Sam’s Girl

August 9th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Sam’s Girl 24 x 18 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

Hi everyone, meet Dancer, the Arabian horse I lease. She belongs to a wonderful young woman named Sam, so this explains the title. Dancer didn’t always have it easy in her earlier years, but since she’s with Sam, she’s been cherished, as she deserves to be. She’s a wonderful horse, one of the alpha mares on the ranch, and she’s teaching me a lot about myself. At 23 yrs old, she’s a wise horse. Sometimes that’s not so good for me, but I absolutely love Dancer. I don’t get to ride her as much as I’d like to to my terrible back and joint pain, but if I could, I’d ride her every day. Riding is very therapeutic; good for the body as well as the soul. My kuddos to Dancer and Sam for their patience with me! Sam needs to be rewarded for this.

I’ve got some more pieces on the cooker, so to speak, and I also plan to start a series of smaller works. I’m not returning to the daily painting project, but these will be quicker pieces, aimed at studying and strengthening my artistic skills. When I did participate in the daily paintings a few years back, I found I learned so much and developped beyond leaps and bounds as an artist. I’m hoping that by going back to these smaller studies that I attain a new level.

So, keep your eyes peeled and keep checking regularly. More work will keep coming, and in the mean time, thanks for dropping in and take care!

New Website Address!

July 30th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Hi everyone,

I’ve been busy, yes, painting and also with creating a new website! New paintings are coming soon, but in the meantime, be sure to check out the new website and bookmark it!

The new site will have great features, such as built in blog, newsletter subscription, and other stuff to come in the future. So, why did I switch? I decided to go with a Fine Art Studio Online (FASO) site because they are geared toward artists and have features which are very beneficial to artists! I’ve just completed working on the new site, but I do love it so much more, already!

Also, if you’ll note, my website is no longer a .net , but a .com . Be sure to check it out!

www.carolerodrigue.com Yes, I’ve written it in bigger font. ;-)

Still Life

July 15th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Clay Vase 20 x 24 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

Well, it’s not tomorrow, but rather, a few days later. I haven’t had the time to do the tweaking I want to do on this piece so I decided to post this photo all the same.

This piece was inspired by a couple of matching vases I have, with each sitting in their own cabinet tower. One evening, the sun was coming in just right and creating this glow on the one vase. I was fascinated by the way the light hit, so voila, a new painting was born!

I’m also working on a new website. I’m doing it through FASO, and so far so good! Through this site, I’ll even be able to work on this blog and have it posted there as well. I will also have an option for a quarterly newsletter that you’ll be able to subscribe to, as well as Facebook “Like” buttons. I’ve got most of my photos uploaded and need to complete the rest when I have more time. I’d really like to get to Dancer’s painting and get it done this weekend, if possible.

So, that’s the scoop du jour and I will be back soon with more art! Until then, be safe and take care!

La Cloche Art Competition 2010

July 11th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Me at the La Cloche 33rd Annual Art Show

My oh my, but it’s been a while! I’ve been super busy with all sorts of things from painting, art stuff, competitions, and a whole slew of things that needed done. But I’m oh so very proud to say that I won 1st place in the acrylic category at the annual La Cloche Art Show and Competition last week. The show runs until 5:00 pm today, and forgive me for being late in posting this.

The award was given for my painting, Kettle & Cherries, which you see in the above photo. I was in excellent company, and the range of artwork was incredible! I was surprised and humbled to have won 1st place after I saw the entries in the acrylic category. I kid you not, there were so many amazing works of art.

When I had walked in to deliver my paintings for the jurying, I took one look at the acrylic pieces which had already been entered and I broke into a sweat. I felt my heart sink to the pit of my stomach and thought, “Wow. There’s no way I’m winning.” I wasn’t even sure if I’d make the show! So, imagine my delight when I received the call! Again, I’m truly honored to have won. I was determined to come home with a red ribbon. I wasn’t sure I’d get it once I entered, but before that, I kept focusing on that red ribbon and I did come home with it! Yay!

So what am I up to now? Painting, painting, painting! I’m currently working on a horse piece of Dancer, the Arabian I lease. She’s such a beauty and I will have several paintings of her in the long run, I’m sure. I’ve also completed a still life which I will try to post tomorrow. I’ve got some final touches to do and need to take good photos before I post it. Then, it’s on to another horse piece. I received some wonderful reference photos from a friend of her two horses at dusk. I’m itching to get to those! I also attended the rodeo in Azilda last night and got so many great reference shots there. Heck, I even printed out a black & white and framed it in my studio late last night. I’m not getting into photography as an art, but I loved the cropped shot of a horse’s neck and mane, complete with great bling. I had to frame it and pronto! I might post it later.

Before I close, I wanted to post a link to this amazing equine artist I discovered through Facebook yesterday. Her name is Lesley Thiel and her renderings are so realistic and breathtakingly beautiful! She paints the most wonderful action shots. I am in complete awe of her work and know you will be too! Have a look and enjoy!

Mining Pieces

June 9th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Untitled 20 x 24 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue

Hi everyone, here are my latest 2 pieces. They were inspired by old mining helmets my friend found in her house. I said I would do a series with these, but for now I’ll leave it at 2 pieces. I do have a couple of ideas for more paintings, but there are so many other pieces I want to get to first!

I’ve also started working on another still life, chiaroscuro, clay vase. . . I hope it will turn out as I envision it. There are also a few horse pieces I want to do, as well as a still life using a cow skull I purchased a few months back. It’ll be something very Southwest.

Before I go, I’m reminding everyone that you are invited next Tuesday, June 15th, between 5-9 pm at Northern Flavours, 106 Beech St. in Sudbury for my vernissage. These 2 pieces are already hung there, and a portion of the sales will be donated to the Sudbury YMCA Strong Kids Campaign.� Hope to see you there!

Expo

June 5th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Hey everyone, I’m writing a quick note to let you know that an artist has cancelled at Northern Flavours, therefore, I’ve already begun to exhibit some work there. The vernissage will still take place on June 15th, from 6-9 pm. All artwork is for sale, with a portion donated to the Sudbury YMCA’s Strong Kids Campaign. Hope to see you all there!

Another Project

May 21st, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

This chair is a project I’m participating in for the Sudbury Manitoulin Children’s Foundation Charity Chair Auction. Since I paint a lot of equines, I wanted my contribution to be horsey, something warm, and dreamy.� I’m calling this one, “Running With The Spirit”. Painting this was something completely different for me and quite a pleasure! It’s also a great cause since the funds raised will help send kids to camp.

Please mark June 15th on your calendar also since that’s the night of the wine and cheese for my solo art show. If you’ve checked out my website this week, you’ll notice that I’ve partenered up with the YMCA in Sudbury and part of the sales from the solo show will go to the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign, which is another excellent cause!� The paintings will be exhibited until July 31st at Northern Flavours, but opening night with the vernissage is June the 15th.

If you feel I’ve not been posting much on my blog lately, you’re right and I apologize. But! The reason I’m not posting is because I’m working on some mining related still life paintings. A friend of mine bought an older home recently and found some really old mining helmets and an old lunch pail. When she told me about these, my head started planning immediately, even before I’d seen what she had. My friend was kind enough to lend me these treasures which I’m now using as still life subjects. This only makes sense since Sudbury is a mining town and was founded as such. These pieces will only be unveiled at the solo show and not before!!!

Some of you might also like to know that I’ve been asked to give a 2 day painting workshop in Barrie, Ontario. The 2 day workshop will consist of studying a live horse model and painting a close up shot with a reflective eye.� For more information or to reserve your spot, contact Laura at Three Girls And A Camera or contact me.

And last but not least, for those of you in the state of New York, or those who are planning on visiting the Hudson Valley, make sure to check out HITS-On-The-Hudson’s calendar of events for the equine art exhibition (click the “Releases” tab or the Equine Art Exhibit button). All of the art pieces, including mine, will be exhibited throughout the Hudson Valley during the summer, then move on to the Fletcher Gallery in August, then head to Saugerties for the Pfizer Million Dollar Grand Prix in September. If you’ll be anywhere around there, you won’t want to miss all of the spectacular art! This artshow is also raising money for Family of Woodstock, Inc
Okay, that’s it for now. I think I’ve posted quite a few links on here! Enjoy reading up, and take care until next time!

Trésors II

April 27th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Trésors II 16 x 20 original acrylic Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010
Here’s my latest piece, Trésors II. I finally managed to finish this one last night. And yes, it is a night shot with the flash creating a glare. I wonder if there is any way to photograph anything with so much black perfectly! I love painting these still lives though, as well as adding the equine touch. Painting pearls is something I’m really growing to love as well, so this is giving me many ideas for future paintings. Hope you’re enjoying this one. It will be displayed at my solo show in June at Northern Flavours on Beech St. in Sudbury. I’m planning on a grand opening/vernissage June 15th, but will confirm that date later.

I also got myself a wonderful little Shih Tzu dog today. Her name is Taja and she is such a precious dog! You’d expect a dog to have separation anxiety on her first night in a strange place, but she is just loving it here. My cats, well, that’s another story. We’ll keep them separated for a while, but I’m really falling in love with this little dog already. As I’m typing this out, she’s still sniffing every corner, but keeps coming back to me to lay at my feet or to say hello. What a sweet thing!

That’s it for now. I’m starting on a new piece, a mining piece for the show as well as waiting for a Muskoka chair to be delivered later this week. This will be painted with an equine theme and auctionned off for charity to send kids to camp. I’ll show the chair once completed, as well as the latest piece. Talk to you soon!

P.S. I just found out why she was sniffing out every corner . . .

No Bull Revisited

April 13th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue


No Bull 11 x 14 original acrylic on canvas Copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

So here’s “No Bull” with the background changed. It used to be orange and I just didn’t like it. It’s not much of a change, I merely painted the background black, but I like it much better. It’s so much more dramatic.

I’m still working on another still life, more pearls, jewelry box, and horse statue . . . I’ve lost 2 weekends in a row being away, so I’m really eager to get on with the painting. Losing 2 weekends is a lot of time in artistland!� Hopefully I can make up this time quickly. I’ve got so many ideas I’d like to get on canvas before the show in June. That doesn’t leave much time. I do have enough pieces already, but I’d still like to get some fresher pieces in, especially a couple of the future mining series.

I’m also announcing ahead of time that I have been asked to give a 2 day workshop this summer. I will provide more details and give the specifics on my site once the date has been finalized. It should be an amazing, informative, and fun-filled 2 days!

Have a great week everyone, and I’m hoping to be done something else soon.� Thanks again for dropping in!

Golden Glow

April 9th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue


Golden Glow 16 x 20 original acrylic Copyright 2010 Carole Rodrigue

Hello! I was finally able to finish this piece. Of course, it’s night shot, so there’s a glare and some parts don’t show, such as the darker blues in the painting. I suppose I should always wait until I can photograph outdoors under better lighting, but hey, we’ve had a storm all day! If I waited around for the weather, I’d never get anything posted. So, bad shot, but I posted it anyway.

I’m still working on several pieces, and am starting to see progress. It’s great when you can get to that point! I have so many ideas I need to get going on, including the mining hat series. I’ve also re-worked another painting I’d done a while back. It was a bull and I decided to�change the color of the background. I will post that one another day. This girl’s gotta work in the morning, and I’ve got to get to bed!

So, come back in a few days and I’ll re-post a whole new “No Bull!”. I will also have some anouncements to make in the coming month, so hold on to your britches! Is that how it’s said? :-s

Take care everyone, and thank you for dropping in!

Winter Dance

April 2nd, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Winter Dance 16 x 20 original acrylic copyright Carole Rodrigue 2010

As promised, here’s a completed painting. I call this one “Winter Dance” because photographing this beautiful Percheron was almost like a dance between the two of us. The horse was far out in the pasture when I spotted it. It would approach ever so slowly, and as soon as I would look, the horse would stop.

After waiting around freezing, -this was in February-, I’d had enough and decided to “dance”. So, I would turn myself sideways and wait. The horse would take several steps. I’d look, and it stopped. I would turn sideways again, shuffling my feet, shivering and waiting, and the horse would approach some more. We went on like this for a good fifteen minutes, with my boyfriend patiently waiting in the truck. God bless him for all his patience with me! I had patience for the horse . . .

Anyway, after our “dance”, the horse was finally close enough for me to get a decent shot. From then on, it just seemed to pose for me. I could tell it was still nervous but curious, so I took as many shots as I could, and returned to the comfort of the warm truck. My poor buddy seemed disapointed!� After that whole dance, I just abandonned it, just as it had enough nerve to want to know more. But it was just too cold and I really wasn’t dressed for shooting in the winter. I was even wearing high heeled boots! Now that’s dedication to my art! Anything for a shot . . . Well, not quite. But I’m glad I had a chance to dance with this beauty, and I might drive back another day when it’s warmer.

The shot of the painting is on the dark side.It’s actually much brighter and lighter. Now, back to some still life! I have a few I’m working on and need to finish, as well as a series on mining. This is Sudbury, after all. Then, I’ve been asked to participate in painting a Muskoka chair for charity, to send kids to camp. I’m looking forward to getting my chair. I have an equine theme in mind, and pretty much know what I want to do. And I’ll be helping to send a kid to camp!!! Yay! I’m excited about this project and can’t wait to get started. I’ll keep everyone posted on everything, of course.

Hope you all have a great holiday weekend, and a safe one too!

Instructional DVD’s

March 30th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Hi everyone, and no, these DVD’s are not mine.  They are created by Derek Wicks I highly recommend them! I bought “Touch of Gold” and “Creating Snow Textures”. I have to admit that I learned more about painting snow and blurring backgrounds effectively in those 2 DVD’s than I have in all my years of painting! You can check out all of his instructional DVD’s http://www.powertopaint.com/ .  Derek also has reference material DVD’s.�

While you’re there, you might want to have a look at Derek’s art also at http://www.derekwicks.com/ . Derek is a wonderfully talented wildlife painter and I know you won’t be disappointed! He is supposed to come to the Sudbury area this summer to offer workshop and I certainly am looking forward to it.  I’ll keep you posted on this.

Drop in again really soon. I’ll have 2 paintings ready to post soon, one within the next couple of days.  Until then, take care and thanks for dropping in!

Solo Show

March 8th, 2010 | Posted by Carole Rodrigue

Hello everyone! No completed work to post yet. I’m still working on a few pieces and struggling to find extra time to get things done. But they will get done!

I though I would drop in for a quick announcement, and that is in regards to my first solo show. Yes! I will be having my first solo show this summer from June 15th to July 31st, at Northern Flavours on Beech St. in Sudbury. Northern Flavors is a small local eatery and food store promoting northern products, and excellent ones might I add, as well as promoting local artists. Various artists have had shows there and I can’t wait to have mine! Painting will include a selection of still life and equine art. I don’t have the evening for the grand opening selected yet, but I will keep you all posted as things get finalized and the time for the show comes nearer.

It would be great to meet some followers of my art and meet any art lover at the show! So, stay tuned for the final details. And thanks for dropping by!
