Stoneworks by Trudi Peek
Kristi's Mom lives in Port Orchard, WA and started to
create these wonderful watercolor paintings, on rocks, of owls and cats.
I think they are so well done and pretty that I would like to share them
with a lot of other folks. If you are interested in buying any of her critters
please feel free to contact my Mom at the e-mail address and/or phone number
listed below. She has a tremendous selection of owls rocks and cats
rocks for sale.
Here is Kristi's Mom's story about what she does:
The cats and owls that I love-their snug, rounded bodies,
their unique eyes, their elusive beauty and their humor that often peeks
out-seems very much at home on the beautiful, light-colored, surf-smoothed
stones and driftwood I find in this corner of Washington. Not every stone
works, of coarse, but once I decide there is an animal inside a
stone, I make a careful drawing and start building up the many layers of
its eyes and nose and beaks. I use only transparent watercolor paint so
that I don't obliterate the beauty of the stone. Acrylic spray finishes
the painting for a durable surface. Elk leather is used for the pedestals
and as padding wherever the stone might come into contact with the table
or walls.
