  • New Custom Pet Portraits!

    New on my website today: Custom Pet Portraits by Conni Togel

    Pet owners usually have a close connection to their little home-owners – whether cat, dog, chicken, pig, snake, or possum, all have a special place in the hearts of the family they live with.

    What could be better than having them displayed peacefully, and colorful as a piece of art in your home. Less smelly, more smiley!

    Once You’ve place your order, send me some images of your critter, and I’ll get to work creating a painting you can treasure forever…

  • A NEW ALPACA PAINTING IN THE FLOCK

    A NEW ALPACA PAINTING IN THE FLOCK

    Trying Out New Things In The Studio

    “Our heads are round, so our mind can change directions….”

    That is my mantra lately – some call it “squirrely”, others call it “uncommitted”, still others call it “creativity”. Whatever it is that makes us think around the corner, it is what hit me recently.

    Sheep have happened. and, I love pInting them – they make me smile. But why stop there?

    So I’ve started to add new critters, new media, and new techniques to my studio.

    Most recently, my easel has been my ipad, with a nice painting app, to explore the process of digital paainting. It seems a much more portable and forgiving media – not to mention, that the juried fine art shows offer a digital media category that needs some smiles as well.

    So here are my first endeavors with the new roadmap I am following for a bit:

    And this is one in progress, that I have been working on this morning a title to be determined….

  • WIP “GRASSHOPPER” SHEEP INCOGNITO

    NEW SHEEP INCOGNITO PAINTING ON THE EASEL: “GRASSHOPPER”

     

    this is a new painting I’ve started on this weekend – we have two shows happening this weekend in Nappanee, Indiana (Amish Acres Arts & Crafts Festival), and in Dublin, Ohio (Dublin Irish Festival), so we needed to beef up the walls of the booth…

     

    Title: GRASSHOPPER

    Size: 24″ x 48″

    Media: Oils on canvas

     

    Starting with a quick sketch of Burnt Umber thinned with orange oil, I first established the general shape and figure, then painted the background in.

    Initially I thought a black sheep would be the best, but with the background being a bit darker, the contrast will be to weak – so I am adding a warmer, wool colored touch to the sheep, to make it look less cold and stand out more.

  • WIP: Stock Car At the Richmond Raceway

    WIP: Stock Car At the Richmond Raceway

    We are at the Richmond Raceway Complex this weekend for the 30th Craftsmen’s Classics Arts & Crafts Show.

    Which of course is the perfect environment for some more work on the new Sheep Incognito painting
    “Stock Car”.

    This one is much more work than I bargained for – progress has been slow, and there are sections I’ve repainted about five or more times.
    Which has to do with me not liking to work with acrylics, and the fact that details are not my specialty at all.

    This has been a bit of a mind- altering project for me in a way: where is the finish line on a painting? Is a painting ever really finished, or is each session the beginning of a new artistic path?

    Here is the current status of “Stock Car” – it is 16 inches x 16 inches, acrylics on canvas, and the unframed painting is priced at $795.

    We will have giclee prints of it available , both on paper and on canvas.

    Email me if you would like to offer Stock Car a living home – I have a waiting list in place, but it is still short enough to give you a good chance of owning the original painting.
