Lori Having Fun

This blog is devoted to the work I create when I just need to cut loose and have a little fun. Some of the pieces below are paintings and some are mixed media assemblages. Prints are available of all of the paintings. Please contact me at lorikgordon@gmail.com for prices and availability of both originals and prints. For my more serious work, please visit my other sites at thekatrinacollectionbylorikgordon.blogspot.com, gordonmixedmedia.blogspot.com, and sixdegreeswesttoeast.blogspot.com.

Friends of the Animal Shelter

10% of all sales of my animal art at Gallery 220 in Bay St Louis will be donated to Friends of the Animal Shelter, a terrific organization in Hancock County, Mississippi.

Back Yard Dogs! These small assemblages were created from smashed bottle caps, mirror tiles, paperclay, acrylic paints, painted ceiling tiles, the tops of cypress fence boards, and magnetic hearts.

Alley Cats! These small assemblages were created from the top sections of boards from a weathered cypress fence, ctas made of metal and imported from India, and battered ceiling tiles.

Gatto Italiano! These small (6″ x 6″) feature cats loaded with personality and mouthing off in Italian. The original paintings were done on paper; these images have been printed on canvas that is adhered to 2″ deep blocks of tung wood, and repainted to give the piece texture and depth. The English translations are printed on the back of each piece.
