Latest Artworks by PWAS Members

Wow, PWAS got talent! Here is a sampling of what some of our members have been working on so far this year. Be amazed....

Mandy Powell

Here’s what I’m working on:

I’m working on a commission of St. Thomas Cathedral in Connecticut where someone’s parents were married.  Also, I’m finishing up a 3D abstract landscape using acrylic and spackling with a pallet knife.

Donna Liguria

I've been working on a commission for a lady in Illinois, so this is Vicki's Pond. It's a 16x20 acrylic painting on Stretched canvas. I'm varnishing it now so it is very close to being ready to ship. She also asked for a "hidden critter" picture for her young grandson but I'm doing that in colored pencils and acrylic pens on mixed media paper.

Here is the story about Vicki's Pond and all the little creatures found around it on my Blog Donna's Cave Paintings https://donnascavepainting.blogspot.com/2024/01/post-340-commissioned-painting-of.html

Patti Durbin

This is a new piece from me. It is a canvas collage measuring 10"x20" called "Elegance."

Elena Jochum

Here are a couple of my finished and unfinished watercolor pieces of 2024. I entered the “Subject or Matter” painting of my husband into a couple competitions. Wish me luck! The blackberry lily was displayed at the Native Plants of Virginia symposium at George Mason University. Not Pictured: The unfinished cardinal is a continuation of my Virginia’s nature series and a horse watercolor is a painting commission.

Staci Blanchard

I’ve been taking a class with Michelle Frantz at the Art Factory, and this is one of the paintings I did. 

Zee Berrios

Below are a couple of shots from recent work. They are part of a series called "Original Natives". The series will have at least 12 paintings. They are acrylic on canvas. The sizes will be from 24" X 20" to 48" X 60".

Sonya Cromwell

Not sure how the two pictures will look as I took a picture of them with my iPhone.   I plan to take a course to learn how to take pictures of my art.

DL: My answer to that is a whole bunch of us need to take that course! Especially for Calls for Art submissions. It is definitely a trial and error for us non-camera know-how newbies! Maybe one of our Photographer members should give a program on it! Any takers? Nonetheless, I think the pictures Sonya took look fine, definitely for blog purposes at least.

Nicole Goble

I’m sending you two pieces I’m proudly working on- almost done.

Kacy Egan

Here are the things I do. A WIP :  oil painting of 2 bobcats. And I am currently learning the Art of Pastel drawings  - domestic cat. 

Cindy Kreiman

Here is what Cindy is working on:

Simona Bergman

Coyote-“Luna”and Bobcat-“Harmony” from Simona, Cindy's sister

Katie Dugan

Here are a couple from Katie:

DL: Congratulations to Katie, she sold a couple of works from the PWAS at GoWell Stonebridge and from Warrenton locations! Also, Elizabeth Stathis and Nicole Fisher have sold some art at the Stonebridge GoWell!

We should do a blog post on "show us your art studio" - no matter how small or large it is, whether its needs spring cleaning or a complete overhaul! Is your art studio, photography studio, your create space perfectly in order and everything is organized?

Let 'em know what you think in the comments below! I'm in awe!!
