Abstract Art by Oklahoma Contemporary Artist Jonelle T. McCoy "A Pair of Scissors"

© "A Pair of Scissors"
The state bird of Oklahoma is the scissortail flycatcher. These beautiful little birds with amazing tails perform swooping acrobats in the air to catch their insect meals. I enjoy seeing them around our country acreage. This painting was entered into the OKC 2013 State Fair in OKC in the open division of the birds category in decorative arts, it not only won first place but garnered a gorgeous purple rosette "Best of Show" in all of the open decorative arts classes. It now hangs in my home but I'd love to see them fly into your home to live and be enjoyed. This acrylic painted on a 12"x 36"x 1.5" gallery wrap canvas has delightful energy and appeal. It is for sale through my home studio for $500.00 plus shipping.

Original Acrylic Artwork by Oklahoma Equine Artist Jonelle T. McCoy

"A Pair of Scissors"
I decided to have some fun doing my signature line technique on representing the Oklahoma State Bird, flycatcher scissortails. I used contrasting blues and oranges to give it vibrancy, a feeling of soaring energy, and for a indication of the coming Fall. This was an exciting and rewarding painting for me to accomplish. Done on a 12"x 36"x 1.5" gallery wrap canvas in acrylics. It will be shown in the 2013 OKC State Fair arts competition, then afterwards will be hanging for sale at the Shawnee, Ok Sweet Earth Studio Mingle Gallery. Price $500.00 For information contact the gallery or find them on facebook https://www.facebook.com/sweetearthstudio
