Kolene Spicher

A blog about my thoughts and my love of artwork as it develops. It reflects some of the basic steps that I go through to achieve the artwork which is eventually presented to Spicher and Co, an innovative design firm that manufactures artwork for the trade. The why, what, how, and where are a few of the questions that I attempt to answer as I blog away! This is a tiny window into the life of a painter, and my hope is that my love for life shines through in the objects that I work to create.

Swan Babies

My Baby Swans

LOVING CONTENTMENT

I have found some connection to nearly everything that I have ever painted. I have three boys. When I look at this painting and the mother carefully watching her ducklings (swan-lings??), I can't help but think of my own children who are now grown up (almost). I find myself painting birds a lot for some reason. I think it's because they don't toil or worry. They just know everything is going to be okay. They trust their creator to provide for them... This particular painting hangs in what I call my "Seashell" room. If you like it and want a print of it, let me know... Kolene
