Sandra Strohmeyer's Art
Welcome to my Bird Gallery. There's something about birds that charms us. Their bright colors, little wings, sweet song and just their flitting about happily in the birdbath that makes us smile. 8x10 prints $18 and 11x14 prints $25
Inspire/Raven
This painting evolved with splashing some color on the canvas, brushing this way and that. Then, I thought of some words that came into my head about painting. "Courage, Inspire, Master, Risk among others and inscribed them into the painting. It is like my inner thoughts are surfacing from the painting. The raven and the sun may depict opposites?
It's up to you to interpret.

Look At Me
This is an acrylic painting on stretched canvas. We have five birds on a branch in the rain. It is either leaves or feathers falling (leave it to your imagination) and the bluebird on the right is screeching at the others to be noticed. The parakeet is looking but otherwise the rest are ignoring him. So, this painting is telling a story and at the same time the colors are nice and bright and remind me Spring is here.
Original measures 11X14" $125

Yellow Birds
The end of winter of 2012 was nearing. I was tired of the rain and wanted to paint something that would lift my spirits. Low and behold, the Yellow Birds! Just in time for Easter, I made up cards for all my Tuesday lunch friends I wrote a note wishing them a Happy Easter and hope for sunshine soon to come.
Original measures 11"X14" matted, unframed $150

Blue Crane
The Blue Crane was exhibited in the Oregon Waterways Exhibition at Oregon State University's Guistina Gallery in the LaSells Center. It was a nice challenge to do something that expresses the Northwest's Wetlands or other waterways. I remember seeing a metal sculpture of a crane at an art fair so I used that image to paint this scene. Notice there is a fish jumping in the right hand corner in the bottom of the painting.
Original measures 15"X22" framed $275
