Night Watch

Leave a comment

The latest painting in my In Our Veins series is now finished. Night Watch features a bobcat, which are adaptable and thrive in various habitats from forests to deserts. They are found throughout the Sonoran desert. The Zuni and Pawnee tribes see the bobcat as a sign of blessing. Among the Pawnee, the bobcat acts as a celestial bridge, symbolizing a connection between earth and stars. The Joshua tree, which grows despite harsh desert conditions, is seen as a symbol of hope and resilience. The beast heads are from a 17th century German book known as Aquarelle von Säugetieren, Vögeln, Insekten und Pflanzen samt deutschen Legenden (translated: Watercolors of Mammals, Birds, Insects, and Plants Together with German Legends). Night Watch is an acrylic on canvas, 12″ wide x 12″ high, and available on my website here: https://amyguidry.com/gallery/night-watch/index.html.

New Paintings

“Uprooted” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 10″ x 8″; (c) Amy Guidry 2023

Happy to share two new paintings in the In Our Veins series. First is Uprooted which features an Afghan hound, one of the oldest domestic dog breeds in the world, dating back to 4000 BC, and also the first dog to be cloned. A fun little fact about this piece: the background landscape is inspired by 18th century painter George Stubbs’s The Kongouro from New Holland. Uprooted is an acrylic on canvas, 10″ wide by 8″ high, and you can find it on my website here: https://amyguidry.com/gallery/uprooted/index.html.

Next up is The Committee of Indecision which was created for Modern Eden Gallery’s Harvest exhibition. Harvest explores the symbolism of fruit and vegetables in art. The grapefruit is associated with many meanings, avoidance being one of them. This piece is an acrylic on canvas, 8″ wide by 6″ high, and available through Modern Eden Gallery’s website here: https://www.moderneden.com/collections/all/products/the-committee-of-indecision.

In Progress

Dodo painting in progress by Amy Guidry (detail); Acrylic on canvas; 20″w x 10″h; (c) Amy Guidry 2018

Making some progress on my current painting.  I’m working on the details of the dodo bird’s face and feathers at the moment.  There’s still a little work left to do on the background, but I just had to work on the dodo.  I took some artistic license on the details.  For example, adding folds of skin around the eyes and wrinkles.  All the old illustrations and even the model recreations give him a completely smooth face, but after looking at tons of various bird photos, I decided against that and made my own interpretation.  This is just a close-up photo- the entire painting is 20″ wide by 10″ high, and is an acrylic on canvas.  More details soon.  You can view the rest of this series here: https://amyguidry.com/gallery.html.
