Only three days left!
I have been so blessed to sell all my oil paintings except those three below.
If anybody out there is interested then the price is Is.kr.25,000 each, the size of them is 30x40cm each.
The sides are also painted so it is not necessary to frame them unless you like to.
Anybody interested are welcome to contact me at my phone: 8994423 or by my mail: steina.einarsdottir3@gmail.com
Hello Steinunn,
ReplyDeleteSome time ago I discovered your art Blog via Jo Mackenzie's art Blog. I enjoyed seeing your work and when I realized you live in Iceland, I was very pleased because I have friends, the Benediktssons who have family there. Also, I studied in Lund, Sweden for a year and enjoy all things Scandinavian! Today I noticed your comment about "no wimpy watercolors" so I thought I would stop by and say "Hello". Could you kindly tell the stories of these 3 paintings? They are all wonderful. I especially like your palette! - Dana
Hello Dana,
ReplyDeleteLovely to hear from you and that you discovered my blog through Jo´s blog. I really enjoy following Jo´s journey, very interesting artist.
Where do the Benediktssons live in Iceland? Yes, Scandinavian countries are very interesting, I lived for a year in Oslo when I was a young woman.
I am glad you noticed and decided to say "Hello" Dana and doubly glad that you noticed my paintings and like them.
The top one is a scene viewed from west of my island, there are a lot of rocky and small islands.
I wanted to show the "Golden" daybreak we so often get here.
The second from top is from the olden time when the seamen were getting ready to go fishing and is a childhood memory.
The last one is showing two young one learning the robes about sea live .
The are all done in warm colors as you noticed Dana.
My colors depend on what I would like express to the viewer, like in this instance it was the feeling of warmth and togetherness of people.
I hope I did not tire you with trying to express myself, I am better at it on paper or canvas than in words really.
Look forward hearing from you again and perhaps you would like to join my site, that way you can follow my other blogs as well.
Best regards.....Steinunn
Aha, I remembered where I commented on your work, Steinunn! I just had to think about these 3 paintings which are so interesting. I love paintings that tell a story - about a place, or about people going about their daily lives. I have found the place to get email updates of your posts and look forward to them very much! - Dana
ReplyDeleteHi Dana, thank you for your interest, it really gladdens me.
ReplyDeleteI came back home from the mainland last night after my eye operation, everything is well.
Hope you are well and looking forward to Christmas.... Steinunn
