STAMPEDE - Mustangs - Breckenridge Gallery

noreply@blogger.com (Elizabeth Taylor) — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 20:48:00 +0000

This acrylic painting by the collaborative artists of Canvas By Canvas was inspired by the famous Las Colinas, Texas sculpture. Wild mustangs such as these were once important inhabitants of much of Texas. STAMPEDE is painted on five Ampersand deep wood cradled panels measuring 20" x 16" each. When combined the panels create a painting totaling 20 inches tall and 80 inches wide. No frame is necessary as each panel hangs separately to create a panorama of the wild horses running through the water . . . . Awesome!

This painting and much more will be on display at the Breckenridge Fine Arts Center just west of the Dallas-Fort Worth area from March 5 to April 13. Visit the gallery http://www.breckenridgefineart.org/Future-Shows.html or the Canvas by Canvas website http://www.canvasbycanvas.com

PIGEONS FROM THE PARKS - by Elizabeth Mitchell Taylor

noreply@blogger.com (Elizabeth Taylor) — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 00:08:00 +0000

The Parks Mall in Arlington is getting a major re-do. There were many small pigeon statues throughout the mall, up in the rafters and high beams. These were donated, and after being redecorated by area artists, the newly beautified pigeons will be auctioned off in November to benefit River Legacy Park. Stay tuned for further details on how YOU can get one of them!

In another collaborative effort, each Canvas by Canvas artist has selected a pigeon to repurpose - "Golden Girl " is the contribution of artist Elizabeth Mitchell Taylor - This pretty gold pigeon looks like she has laid a giant goose egg. Nestled in soft turquoise feathers on a golden platter, the egg may just hatch soon!

Pigeon Torn Paper Collage, "Paris Pigeon, 12080 by Texas Daily Painter and Collage Artist Nancy Standlee

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy Standlee) — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 01:17:00 +0000

"Paris Pigeon" 12080 NFS

Torn Paper Collage Sculpture on Wood Base

Base 11x5 3/4 x 3/4", Bird 10 x 5 1/2"

Back view

Closeup

Tail

This was a new experience collaging a pigeon. One time I collaged my 4 year old sons broken leg cast with him in it after he had scooted around the floor and just worn it off. I put him on the kitchen table and got out paper and glue and patched it back together. I had a similar experience with this little recycled guy. He came to me with a detached foot and I had to perform several operations to attach it and this is why one ankle is slightly larger than the other. Now to the why I'm buried knee deep in pigeon collage instead of putting up art supplies from weeks of workshop travel. I'd just finished up a 4 day Carol Nelson workshop in Granbury (posts are in the works,) and on Saturday I gave a one day collage workshop in Dallas at the Dutch Art Gallery, and did a blue high heel as my demo. See previous post HERE and Sunday I met with some of my Canvas by Canvas peeps to paint pigeons. It seems the Parks Mall was donating the pigeons to River Legacy Park for an auction/fundraiser in the fall, November 9, 2012, and my friend, Maryann, got us 5 to decorate. Since my boxes of blue papers were nearby from the Saturday workshop I chose to have a blue pigeon and I'd saved the ad from my favorite recent movie, Midnight in Paris, and used some of those papers.

Foot Repair:

River Legacy wanted them on a base and my pigeon was disabled. I went to my favorite Home Depot, searched around in their left over lumber bin and had an end wood piece cut off, all for .51 cents. I attached the feet with Gorilla Glue, then as an added precaution, added heavy gel medium on top and collaged pieces to cover those little feet. Mr. Pigeon was not balanced as he was missing a long toe and I think I probably should have added a little dowel in the front breast area for him to rest on or hang a sign around his neck "carry me by my base". Anyway, he was a learning experience and he was heavily textured to begin with and I used liquid medium to attach the torn papers because I didn't have the gel with me on Sunday but it worked by applying it liberally but I would recommend the gel when you collage a pigeon.

Liz Hill Workshop this Saturday at Dutch Art Gallery

Liz will hold a figure workshop this Saturday and I recommend it and have taken her figure workshop in Houston but she also does pigeons which I dearly love. I covet Liz Hill's pigeons and do wish I'd done them first. I have a beloved Baptist Hymnal that was weeded when my De Leon church got new books and I could collage those precious pages. I think I've already torn out "What a Friend We Have in Jesus" and that's bad because it was the only song I could play on the piano. My collage class on Saturday kept asking is it o.k. to mix this or add this to my collage.. it's always YES.. look at Liz's work as she mixes watercolor, acrylic, charcoal, collage.. even her blog is called "Irreverent Art". But I'm calling my future Liz Hill knock off pigeon collage, a dove collage because I have more emotional connections to doves than pigeons but that is another post.

Here is one of Liz's wonderful bird paintings:

Pair of Jacks donkey large acrylic painting by Texas Collaborative Painters Canvas by Canvas

noreply@blogger.com (Cindy Yandell Parker) — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 22:18:00 +0000

Pair of Jacks Sold

Ask a Texas rancher what animal is a natural guardian for his herds and he’ll tell you it’s a donkey! Here, two such sentries, Jack and Jenny, pose for one of our artist on a cattle ranch in Crockett, TX. Because of a donkey’s loud braying, exceptional hearing, and expert back kicks, he provides safety for the herd from predators such as coyotes, wild dogs, and even snakes.

PAIR OF JACKS was produced by six different Canvas by Canvas artists with acrylics on 8" x 10" canvases. Framed together in a sturdy custom-made wood frame, the piece measures 24 x 28 and comes with the necessary hanging hardware and a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the participating artists.

"Put Another Nickel In" - A Collaborative Painting by Canvas by Canvas

noreply@blogger.com (Connie Michael) — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 03:19:00 +0000

The most popular Jukebox of all time, and the one most often seen on mugs, t-shirts, etc. is the Wurlitzer Model 1015, popularly referred to as the "bubbler". This jukebox was produced in 1946-47 and its long-lasting popularity was driven by an advertising campaign by Wurlitzer which splashed the 1015's image in advertisements in Life and Look magazines, the Saturday Evening Post, as well as on thousands of billboards across the country. Although it is still being produced today, the colorful machine evokes memories of our youth spent doing the jitterbug, bee-bop, and grooving to rock and roll!

Another nostalgic painting by Canvas by Canvas, this piece is comprised of nine 8” x 10” canvases created by the Canvas By Canvas artists, each discreetly signed with the initials of each painter. The canvases are framed together in a custom-made sturdy wood frame that is built to last for generations.

“Put Another Nickel In . . .” is available for sale and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the participating artists. Visit our website at http://www.canvasbycanvas.com/ for purchase information.

"Crazy 'Bout a Mercury"

34"x34" acrylic painting

Each of the 9 canvases in this

piece of collaborative art

is painted by a different artist

This beauty was found along hwy 80 near Weatherford. We are always looking for beautiful, rusty vintage vehicles to photograph and turn into a painting.

Just like Alan Jackson, we're crazy bout a Mercury too. This painting recently sold to a collector of ours in California. Guess he likes Mercurys too. You can read more about our style of art and meet each one of us here.

If you have a favorite subject, we can create a design and paint you an original piece of art. Maybe you had a favorite old car you would like to commemorate.

Vintage Truck Series

The Canvas by Canvas Website... click HERE for more paintings

The eight members of Canvas by Canvas met because of their passion for painting. They created CBC because of their friendship and their love of painting. Most people think one painting equals one artist, but not in the work of Canvas by Canvas. Each painting includes several squares or rectangles and each one is painted by a different CBC artist in their own individual style. Each member contributes their time and energy for a collaborative painting that is unique, colorful, and contemporary. The paintings are usually approximately 30” square but CBC works in all sizes and styles and welcomes commissions.

The photo reference for this 1951 GMC pickup truck was taken in Santa Fe when several members flew there for a photo shoot. The group meets for paint outs, birthday lunches and is in the planning stages for an April 2012 show at the Old Post Office Museum and Art Center in Graham, TX.

Thank you for visiting our blog and come back soon.

IMAGINE . . . each square of every painting is done by a different artist!
Canvas by Canvas is a group of Texas artists who share a love
of painting and have a unique friendship. Their individual painting styles are as
different as their signatures but they unite their painting
voices to produce dramatic art.Each square of every painting is
done by a different Canvas by Canvas artist, and the
charm of the finished painting lies in the individuality of style found in each section.
Each canvas is initialed on the front and signed on the side by the artist
who painted it. The front of the painting is also
signed with the Canvas by Canvas group signature.

CBC Gallery Opening ~ Graham Texas by Nancy Standlee

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy Standlee) — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 04:00:00 +0000

Canvas by Canvas members, Maryann, Nancy, Connie, (Marlene from the Museum) and Cindy at the Old Post Office and Museum Center in Graham, Texas, as we break for the July 4 parade. There is very interesting reading about the history of the area and exhibits if you click on the link. Thanks to all the volunteers who made our opening day very special. Our paintings will hang there until the first part of September so if you're in the area check out our paintings. This is the first time all of them have been hung together. What a treat to see them all in one place and be reminded of the dedication and work that has gone into their production.
We met early for the 2 hour drive and were welcomed to the museum show by a wonderful staff and group of volunteers. We had some time to step outside the door and under the shade of a large tree enjoy the July 4 parade while some of us enjoyed a lesson in water witching. We loved meeting new friends, having them tell us their favorite works and were surprised by a beautiful lunch before our Graham supporters bid us goodbye. Thanks to Red and his wife, Jay and Martha, Danny, Marlene and Tom and to all our visitors - thanks so much for stopping by and introducing yourselves. You have a treasure in Graham with your museum. Thanks for the invitation to show and visit in your town.
