Mixed Media Oil Painting with Semi Precious Stones; Amethyst "Ethereal" by Tesa Michaels








Ethereal
Oil on Panel
36×48
Mixed Media
2.5 inch Museum Wrap Panel
Semi-Precious Stones
Bringing in ELEMENTS of the earth into Fine Art
My “Elements” series is a creative blending of semi-precious stones and unique pieces of the earth with traditional fine art. I love finding and using things that were created by nature such as semi-precious stones and sea shells, using them in unique and creative ways.
“I’ve never seen anything like it”  Is the biggest comment I get. 
The semi-precious stones I use in my Elements series come from all over the world from various sources. Most of the stones I use have been collected throughout the year in order to work out my compositions and then incorporate them into my paintings.
Each semi-precious stone has individual properties generating energetically from the stone. The energy can be felt by wearing the stone, touching the stone and will fill your room where the art will hang.
I encourage people to touch the stones on the art to resonate with its properties. I include properties of the stones with the descriptions. Some stones are healing, energizing, loving, and calming. Some resonate with different chakras and evoke emotions.
I love working with and showcasing the unique beauty found in each semi-precious stone. I hope you enjoy these unique works as much as I enjoy creating them.
Stones Used:
Amethyst: Treats insomnia, relives tension, helps overcome grief and loss, brings about spiritual awareness, constricting thinking and acting, good for skin, alleviates pain, lowers blood pressure, releases imbalances. Connects with spirituality and provides contentment. Clears the aura and relieves dysfunctional energy located within the body. Useful during meditation to promote and maintain a calm and peaceful state. Encourages sobriety, promotes sleep and combats headaches. Good for third eye chakra. Sign of Pisces, Virgo, Aquarius & Capricorn.

Daily Abstract Painting, "Texture" 20x16", Mixed Media


If you follow my blog, you probably are aware of my interest in abstract art.  Although I will continue with my impressionism paintings, I do have a growing desire to dabble in the abstract area.


This painting is a study of texture.  I wanted to keep color to a minimum.


I used molding paste, acrylics and oil pastels to achieve the desired effects.

Thank you for viewing my daily paintings.  Enjoy your weekend!

Untitled, Abstract Landscape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse



5-1/2" x 6-1/4", $95

Painting 33 of CHALLENGE 56

For this painting I first made a monoprint,
then added some acrylic paints, 
and finally, some hand made papers.
I am enjoying the pull toward abstraction
and ambiguity,
or perhaps, complexity.

Florida Sand Dunes, Abstract Seascape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse



24" x 30," Mixed Media, $700
Day 16 of CHALLENGE 30/30
30 Paintings in 30 Days

Today I started a figurative painting that I'm really happy with,
but alas, not enough time today to finish it.
So this is my substitute for Day 16,
a mixed media piece I have been slowly completing over the last several months.
Having grown up in Florida, the beach still calls,
and I like the sense of sea oats that the foreground paper brings.
The sand dunes partially hide the water but lead to those waves.
I also like the ambiguity of the sand line/wave feeling.

KMA2873 Somewhere in Time by Colorado contemporary artist Kit Hevron Mahoney (36x36 abstract, mixed media abstract landscape)



This abstract evolved into a feeling of landscape. I originally painted it upside down from what is seen here, but it kept speaking that I needed to rotate it and allow the sense of a landscape to come through. This is where abstract painting is such challenging fun, letting it take on its own life and letting go of my own expectations. Learning to go with the flow! 36"x36" unframed original mixed media on panel board
$3200.00 + $95 shipping and handling

Forgotten Dreams

This is one of an ever expanding series of paintings called "Forgotten Dreams". I was inspired by cave paintings from all over the world. I used lots of texture to lend the work the look and feel of stone. I used charcoal and dry pigments to lend an air of authenticity to the work. I am amazed at the sophistication of our ancient ancestors and the beauty of their work that still survives.
