Original Sanguine Rat Rodent Painting! Happy Lunar Chinese New Year Zodiac Art Prints & ACEO Prints! ART COLLECTOR STARTER KIT VI (Closed Show) Corey Helford Gallery...



"Sanguine Rat" Original 5"x7" Painting on Panel here
Edit:  The original has sold, open edition prints & LE ACEO prints are still available.

This week my featured painting is "Sanguine Rat," an original rat set against sakura cherry blossoms painting.  I painted it in honor of Chinese New Year...  Year of the rat is soon to start!  This original rodent painting is available as are art prints and LE ACEO prints!  The art has a painterly realist impressionist feel... 


Most of my art is also available on my website at lisabellarusso.com; however, on the first Tuesday of the month, I like to put some art prints and LE ACEO prints on ebay at a lower promotional rate for the duration of the auctions...  This month, my theme is Chinese Zodiac animals, I have delayed my usual launch until recently as I just completed the painting of the rat this week.  If you would like to take a look; you may see them here.

ART COLLECTOR STARTER KIT VI (Closed Show)
Corey Helford Gallery  
Group Show 
DECEMBER 14 - JANUARY 18, 2020

The Corey Helford ART COLLECTOR STARTER KIT VI (Closed Show) features art by their artists generally sized at 12"x12" and priced to entice new collectors into taking the plunge.  Oh how I wish I could!  I went to see HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN by Jasmine Becket-Griffith and I'd so love to be able purchase her and take her home, but alas no, I could only look at and photograph the art.  Which was a privilege in and of itself...  There were a number of rodent inspired pieces and I've decided to open with sharing them as it felt fitting as this year is year of the rat!  I will definitely be sharing more from this show as time progresses.

WIP Year of the Rat Art Original Painting Work in Progress / AUSTRALIA WILDFIRES FUNDRAISER! - Camilla d’Errico - Koala Postcard Set - Signed...



In this original wip work in progress acrylic painting of a rat, I have finished the background, I went with a loose impressionistic style of some cherry blossoms.  Next I will be the underpainting and then the foreground and final details.  The panel that I'm painting on is 5"x7" and I'm hoping to release this on Tuesday but I have a lot of painting to do!  I'm painting Rattie (this is just a working title, I'm hoping to come up with something better, but if not, well...) in honor of the Chinese Zodiac Year of the Rat.  


This is a work in progress, but I also post finished pieces here as well if you'd like to come to visit!  You also may see some of my finished paintings at lisabellarusso.com if you'd like.

AUSTRALIA WILDFIRES FUNDRAISER! - Camilla d’Errico - Koala Postcard Set - Signed


This auction is by welcometo_ourden on ebay, it is to benefit the WIRES Australian Wildlife Rescue @wireswildliferescue.  I love animals and my heart broke seeing the devastation there.  This seems like a beautiful way to help.  I have bought from this seller and they are fantastic.
