I have been painting with acrylics
since 1995, inspired by themes similar to those of my silk
paintings, but employing the changes of technique that
acrylics offer. Generally, when working in acrylic, I tend
to proceed in a manner opposite of that which I use with
the silk medium. This allows me to use a different
approach, working from darker to lighter colours. When
painting on board or canvas, I prefer to prime the surface
with burnt sienna which gives a warm background colour. In
contrast to silk paintings which always progress from
light to dark colours, acrylic paintings start with dark
colours and with layers of paint, building depth and
space. I do very much enjoy the freedom of being able to
paint over surfaces to enhance and alter my work as the
need arises. Today, my preference is to work on oil
paintings. -- Ofra In the Clear Oil on panel, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1300 On the Trail Oil on panel, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1300 Down From Old Baldy Oil on stretched canvas, 18 inch by 24 inch C$600 Father and Son Oil on stretched canvas, 20 inch by 40 inch Sold Light Around the Bend Oil on stretched canvas, 18 inch by 24 inch C$650 Solstice Sun Oil on stretched canvas, 18 inch by 24 inch Sold Order in Nature Oil on stretched canvas, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1500 Winter's Hope Oil on stretched canvas, 30 inch by 30 inch C$1500 Sunrise 18 inch by 24 inch Sold Reunion Oil on stretched canvas, 24 inch by 48 inch C$2000 Cedar Symphony Oil on stretched canvas, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1500 Fog 16 inch by 24 inch Sold Beads of Light 16 inch by 24 inch Sold Clarity Oil on stretched canvas, 30 inch by 60 inch Sold Golden Air Beaver Valley 36 inch by 24 inch Sold Winter Sun 24 inch by 36 inch Sold Mist Oil on stretched canvas, 36 inch by 24 inch C$1200 Distant Glow Oil on stretched canvas, 12 inch by 24 inch C$600 Angel Rock Oil on stretched canvas, 12 inch by 24 inch C$600 Evening Blue 12 inch by 24 inch Sold Reflection Oil on stretched canvas, 12 inch by 24 inch Sold Hot and Cold Oil on stretched canvas, 30 inch by 40 inch Sold Centre Stage Oil on stretched canvas, 30 inch by 40 inch C$2000 Healing light 16 inch by 24 inch Sold After the Storm 20 inch by 40 inch Sold In the Storm Oil on stretched canvas, 20 inch by 40 inch C$1300 From Shadows to Light 24 inch by 48 inch Sold At Rest (Canoe) 16 inch by 24 inch Sold Changing Directions Oil on stretched canvas, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1400 Wind on Water Oil on stretched canvas, 24 inch by 36 inch C$1400 All contents
