New Painting!

Rach (admin) — Sun, 24 May 2009 13:45:16 +0000

I finally snagged myself some time today to get a painting finished. It’s titled “Couch’s Kingbird”. This extremely rare bird is found from southern Texas along the Gulf Coast to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Couch’s Kingbird is virtually indistinguishable from the Tropical Kingbird, which occupies the same neotropical range, but the voices of the two differ consistently. To officially distinguish the species, vocalization would have to be heard.

I love her use of colours. Especially on this cloudy, dreary day here in Ireland. Click the images for more of her work or to purchase a print for yourself from her online shop.

Imagekind Summer Games Contest

Everyone’s in the spirit!

Imagekind are also running a promotion in honour of the Summer Games.

You can submit your own work or nominate another’s art to compete in each of their different events. This is a great opportunity for members. You do need to have at least 5 images in your gallery to enter, but if you’re not a member it’s easy to sign up. You can then nominate and are eligible to vote.

The categories are…

Unity – Coming together for a common cause drives athletes (ok and a little competition) as well as our everyday activities. What do you visualize when you think of Unity? Send us your work that best shows what Unity means!

Pushing the Limits – Some parts of the competition are about pushing through the pain. Show us an image that shows the grit of competition or of life and pushing through it to get the result you want.

Speed – Is it better to dash to the finish line, or does slow and steady win the race? Whether it’s your technique or the subject of your piece, the timing is everything.

Find the full list of rules on how to enter here.
