WOLF Wolves pencil drawing Limited Edition Original Artist Signature Wildlife

Description: I called this painting "Break Time" it is 1 of a series of 4 prints. This drawing depicts 2 trusted companion wolves sitting quietly on hill taking a break, while at the same time there is a small white ptarmigan sitting behind a small clump of grass tucked in tight to the base of the sapling. His black eyes and beak are tuned away from the eyes of the wolves, probably looks like a clump of spring snow. The little ptarmigan needs a break, I drew the grass leaning in the wind away from the wolves, both captured in an instant. One taking a break, the other needing a break. If one could anticipate the next move, don’t worry I did protect the ptarmigan by the young healthy tree standing between them. I really loved doing this drawing. It was the first in the series. Pencil drawing was by far my first love. I like the ability to manipulate the values and invent textures. I zone out when I draw, at times I even stop breathing to make sure I don’t mess up small details. I appreciate the perfection of animals and draw things that are anatomically correct down to the pupils in the eye. (Even the ptarmigans eye is detailed). Animal and art lovers have kin eyes; they connect and appreciate these details where it matters. I spent time on the composition. Notice how the trees really help, not only lead the eye into the work but frame and anchor the main characters. The far off tree line gently rises and dips creating a natural rhythm that pools in the center. A few blades of delicate grass support and comfort the animals. The prints are on acid free smooth white card stock. There is a 1" white border around to give space to frame how you may. If you like I can put a bit of Colored Pencil on the surface of the print for an added personal touch and I can put a personal note on it down where I do my signature. For example " Thanks for your friend ship Jill" "Happy 50th Bill" etc. It About yet maintains details that are technically precise and draw one in to the timeless gaze. About the Artist Laurelle Macy grew up on a farm in northern Canada. Endless in its dimensions, untamed in its spirit, curious in its isolation, to Laurelle it is this and more. It is the stuff of passion, of creation, of timeless inspiration. Macy’s relationship with the land and its people is a seasoned one. Raised in a series of bush camps, Indian reservations and boom towns in Canada’s North West Territories, Macy understood early on, that her paintings could act as windows to a world little seen by others, but well known and loved by her. Laurelle first obtained her Associates in Adverting Design. She worked as a graphic designer before moving on to get her Bachelors in art at Brigham Young University. After returning to the north Laurelle enjoyed success in a number of galleries, festival and commissions. Her and her family moved to Utah where she completed her master’s degree at the University of Idaho and has been actively involved in advanced design education at the college level. Laurelle’s major talent lies in her portrayal of what she calls “living” material. The centerpieces of her artwork are native people, landscapes, and wildlife, all arrestingly “alive” in her paintings. Macy’s refinement of detail is engaging and her love of color apparent, at times immediate and aggressive, at others subtle and leading. Macy experience with color and composition seems to reflect the very personality of her subjects. To see her paintings and feel somehow touched by an open genuine spirit. This singular connection between the viewer and the subject is Macy’s desire. To paint the west, its people, animals and its landscape with compassion and insight, she hopes is her success. Laurelle Macy’s work has been shown in galleries across Northern Canada and in select studios in Utah. In addition to her work, Macy is faculty at the SLC Art Institute, has illustrated children’s books, portrait painter and is a 3 time grant recipient celebrating northern native people. Her diverse career, where she worked along side Dene Nation elders and Inuit carvers, to the cutting edge world of graphic design gives her tremendous understanding and perspective. An artist of unquestionable talent with yet untapped potential. Macy is certainly someone to watch for.
