NELSON BOREN " Engaged " Limited Edition PRINT ONLY 45 Signed and Numbered 30" x 21" in size MINT CONDITION The average painting by Nelson Boren embodies a number of the artist’s qualities — fastidious attention to detail, a tender eye for texture and a respect for the hard-working people of the modern West. But what makes Nelson Boren’s paintings unique is his playful composition and the teasing close-ups that invite each viewer to create his or her own story. "Engaged" is no different. Two dusty, hard-working folks sit beside one another holding hands, perhaps a little excited, as the title suggests, with their new arrangement. But the rest of the story is up to you. Nelson Boren Born and raised in Tempe, Arizona, Nelson studied to be an architect earning a degree from Arizona State University. After practicing for 15 years, during which time he owned a successful firm and won numerous awards, Nelson made the pivotal decision to leave the field in 1980 to pursue his dream of becoming a full-time artist. Nelson credits his life-long love of both art and math with his dual-career path of architecture and fine art. His mother, a painter herself, was his earliest influence. As a teenager in the “psychedelic ‘60s”, the only art posters his mother allowed Nelson to hang in his bedroom where those he painted himself. Later, as an architecture student he had time for very few electives. The first one he chose was a watercolor course with a much-admired professor of architecture who Nelson says painted like “magic.” Discouraged by not painting as well as his teacher, he effectively gave up and stayed focused on architecture. Years later, however, the burning desire to paint returned and he resumed watercolor classes, this time with a higher degree of dedication and more realistic goals. It was during this phase of training when Nelson developed his signature style which he credits most to the principle of “gestalt.” At the same time Nelson became increasingly disillusioned with architecture and the increasing business demands of owning his firm. Finally, in 1980, he and his wife made the decision to make a major lifestyle change and move their family, including the seven children, to Northern Idaho. One of Nelson’s goals was to paint full time, however, he knew he would have to sell some works to justify his time. He got his art represented by several Scottsdale galleries by showing his work door-to-door. Within two weeks, two of his paintings sold. Since then, some of the leading galleries in the U.S. have sought to represent his work, recognizing his unique combination of incredible detail and big, bold and graphic images. Nelson’s work is in collections across the United States including the Whitney Museum of Western Art, Cody, Wyoming, the Coca Cola Company and the Dallas Cowboys NFL football team.

Yeehaw! The Calgary Stampede officially begins tomorrow, and as always, the celebrations will kick off with the Calgary Stampede Parade. momstown Calgary will be watching the parade from the balcony of my home, which happens to be right on the parade route. We could not be more excited! To kick off the festivities, a young friend of mine and I got busy in the kitchen creating these yummy cookies to enjoy while we all watch the parade. Since you don't need an electric mixer to make them, they are a great recipe for kids to help with. Here's a picture of the baking in progress: And here is a picture of the finished product: In the spirit of the Wild West, we'll be referring to them as Chocolate Cow Pie Patties, but you can call them Double Chocolate Fudge Cookies too. What ever name you choose, we're pretty sure that you'll agree with the label of "delicious". The bonus? They are gluten free, nut free, and they can also be made dairy free and fat free by leaving out the chocolate chips, so they are perfect for a variety of different dietary needs. Chocolate Cow Pie Patties (Double Chocolate Fudge Cookies 2 1/4 cups icing sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup cocoa powder 3 large egg whites 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 cup mini chocolate chips (optional) Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, and lightly grease the parchment. 2. In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon or sturdy rubber spatula to stir together all ingredients from icing sugar to vanilla extract until smooth, ensuring you scrape the sides of the bowl. The batter should be glossy, and quite thick. Stir in chocolate chips if using. 3. Drop ½ tablespoons of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving a few inches of space between the cookies, since they spread considerably. 4. Bake cookies for 8 minutes. They should spread, and have shiny tops with faint cracks. 5. Remove cookies from the oven, and allow them to cool on the pans. Store in an airtight container, and enjoy. If you need information on where you can take in the parade tomorrow, check out this website. Of course, if Stampede Breakfasts are more your thing, you can find a list of them here. Happy Stampede everyone!

Learn how to make a DIY stamp. This easy tutorial is a great beginners guide to carving. Learn how I used my stamp to print on fabric for a fun gift idea.

Sindri was shot in Iceland, on a rather tumultuous day on a farm way in the north. He pranced around the field as a stallion does, and perhaps even more full of spirit than usual due to the weather, it’s difficult to say. The image is cropped as I shot it, but of course I have removed the grass and processed it in order to get it to this tone. Whilst shooting Sindri, the concept was just to capture his magnificent power and the emotion that I felt whilst watching him energetically stampede around the pasture. I think that is the case with a lot of my work – my wish is to capture and therefore convey the majesty of these wonderful beings. Everything about Sindri was beautiful, his wild mane, the gleam in his eye, his beautiful paces.
