Rachel's wonderful tiger starts our
Auction for Panthera.org
"I work from life and photographs, when I choose an image to work with it is from a sense of creative potential aka inspiration. I am fascinated by what comes through the paint when I am less concerned with bending it to my will, there is always a balance to consider when yielding to the life of paint."

It's fun to see tigers come back into my work. In 1988 when I got my first gallery representation in San Francisco, I began a series of tiger paintings. My partner, John, brought me a book of Bengal tigers photographed at Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve in India, a wild, amazing landscape with tigers wandering among ruins of palaces on beautiful lakes. The book made me aware of the decline of tigers in the wild. I couldn't imagine a world without tigers. As a self-employed artist, I've never had much to give, but I couldn't stop thinking about it. Now, so many years later, we are making a way for our art to help.

Ravens have been surrounded with myths throughout history and are one of my favorite subject matter for my paintings. I love all the amazing creatures on this planet struggling for habitat and needing homes.
Although I have formal training in traditional representation, I find color to be the most exciting aspect of painting and have been exploring complementary intense color.
After my Masters in Art in 1989, I worked as a sculptor, creating indoor/outdoor female, figurative sculptures for 15 years from cement, wood and clay. In 2008 I began painting with pastels, then 3 years later, oil on canvas. During this shift my subject matter changed from the figure to the landscape surrounding my home in Northern California and beyond, and varies from water scenes and trees to wildlife and birds.
Ultimately, regardless of medium, subject matter or muse, my goal has been, from the beginning, to capture the passionate mutable spirit, joy and beauty of nature, and to capture a moment that rings true.

I’m a self-taught artist, inspired by color and fantasy. My primary medium is ceramics. Many years ago I took a night class in ceramics and fell in love with clay. I’ve been working and experimenting with it for over 30 years. I love the feel and the flexibility of clay, and I love the exquisite luminosity, range and depth of the glaze colors. When I work I try to follow the direction of my heart and my mind and my hands while listening to the voice of the clay.

I was born and raised in Czechoslovakia, today Czech Republic. I am a self-taught artist. I began to paint in my early fifties after moving to the US 14 years ago. I have lived in a number of societies and cultures, and worked as a psychotherapist and a researcher for many years. Art came to me as a way of being, as a meditation, as a life lived in silence, after those previous years of much thinking, talking, discussing, and analyzing. However, that first phase served the next; only now can I dedicate myself to creating magical spaces, telling stories, and figuring out textures and colors.
Creative influences have been many: ‘naive’, or ‘outsider’ artists (Art Brut, William Hawkins, Granma Moses, Henri Rousseau, etc.), Indian miniatures, Mexican bark paintings, Australian aboriginal artists, early Renaissance painters, etc.

I painted this in 2006, after a painting trip to Paris with Micki Flatmo.
Oil paints have absorbed my attention for decades, to the exclusion of any other medium. I work outdoors (en plein air) and in the studio, from photos and memory. I’m inspired more by light and shadow playing across surfaces than by any particular subject matter, but lately I’ve been favoring urban settings – buildings and people – over most other subjects. Old Town Eureka and Humboldt Bay, both within a few blocks of my home, are favorite subject matter, but I’ve traveled as far afield as Beijing, Paris and Mexico in search of inspiration.

I'm a hard working grandma, called madre by the grandchildren, who lives in NorCal with hubby Leon, 4 dogs [our jasper still in our hearts], 4 cats we've buried here, & 6 chickens. I garden, read, and work on improvements in the house. And I try to take photographs.
I started taking pictures in the early 1980's, mostly portraits of my children and their friends. I moved to digital in the 90's and, going full circle, I am experimenting with film again. I am totally self taught. I take pictures of our daily lives.

I painted this image after seeing a bobcat on a trail at the Morris Graves Foundation. The wildcat that I actually saw was sunning himself when I came upon him. He sat for quite awhile before turning tail and moving on. I was struck by his rough beauty and grace.
I am primarily a watercolorist that finds inspiration in the beauty of my natural surroundings and the ordinary in life. For me, painting is a process that has become an on-going, "active" meditation. I also work as an adult and children's art instructor through various art organizations locally. You can see more examples of my work at: www.humboldtart.org and can contact me at: arupasart@reninet.com. A complete resume of my exhibition history, teaching experience and painting prices are available upon request.

"Rose-Bellied Bunting"
print 5x7
Retail value $17
Donation 100%
The Rose-bellied Bunting (Passerina rositae) is also known as Rosita's Bunting.
This bird can only be found in a small range in southeast Oaxaca and extreme southwest Chiapas.
It is endemic to a tiny strip of hills along the Pacific slope of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Mexico, where it occurs in arid to semiarid thornforest and gallery woodlands. It is threatened by habitat loss.
I am a late bloomer. I have for many years been an art educator and art therapist, and finally listened to my own advice. Moving small everyday reverences from my mind, to hand, to canvas is one of my largest joys and comforts. Translating the natural world, my travels, the faces of those I love have been my efforts. Oils give me the lush world of feeling and depth I want to convey. Bombarded with frenetic, noisy techno-excess in today’s world, I consider it an act of anarchy to tenderly record the simple, the quiet, the essential. I do believe the ordinary is quite extraordinary. I cherish the messy, unpredictable and nourishing act of painting.
