Welcome back to Artist of the Week!!! I'd love to introduce you to Joanna Dueck of Conveyor 12 Studios! 💖

Joanna is a fellow Canadian "Canuck" artist, and she is a treasure to the community. I know FOR SURE when I see a photo of her work. She can paint everything from Traditionals to micro, and medallions! She even paints COWS ~ which I absolutely adore as they are so realistic! Everything is so spot on, with a punch pack of detail and the shading on every horse is impeccable. This is extremely hard to do, but really, she makes it look effortless. (I for one know it is not always behind the scenes) She can catch both the softness and brilliance of the many coats of colours horses have, and that is the shine of a true artist at work. I truly think she deserves more recognition in the hobby for her skill. But it is wonderful to have a talented friend in the same country as me. XD I sincerely need a piece painted by her here with me, so one day I hope to have it happen. I am very excited to see what she may have for Breyerfest and if she's entering the BCC ~ you can't not notice her. XD 

Please take a look and give a follow or two on her social media! Provided here are links to her Website, Facebook, and Instagram. :) 

And don't forget to subscribe to the Model Horse Canuck for future Artist of the Week features!

Hello hello. Hope everyone made it through their Monday! I've had a time of it lately with motivation in the studio. I always go by my mother's quote "An effort a day keeps failure away."  But its a time where I can't push myself. Just focus on little things in the studio like "Sculpt just a muzzle on the commission." Just get the magnets in on one drastic project, as its been waiting awhile. Just paint a layer on one or two of the mini resins in house. Why not start painting a medallion that will be in the Breyerfest sale? (Ooops...;)  Little by little motivation happens and as you think about things, suddenly its not so hard to just sit down and work with your hands. It can be tough when a hobby turns into something else, but you have to keep the joy within it, otherwise there is no point in continuing. So its important to take breaks. I get overwhelmed easily, especially since it is my very first Breyerfest with the studio participating, and all the p...

  *photo credit to Janilyn Kooy*  Friends! Last night was a special moment for me. It became official that a dream I have had since a little girl was to come true ~ to have a pony of my very own. Chance, aka LadyLuck Hero, is now part of the family. 💕 Its one thing to work with horses and ponies (and long ears) that belong to others when their owners are generous and kind to share. It was as close as I could get, and I learned a ton of what goes on in horse life that way. I've ridden many different horses and handled and pet many more, and I was happy with that. I still have two very specific horses I am very attached to in the way of sentimental value. 💜 God provides, and I knew my time would come one day. But it didn't stop me from always praying for a pony for my own.  Fast forward those years and times and many prayers. Last spring a friend and neighbour had a gorgeous Canadian mare, and she was not sure if the mare was pregnant or not. Well it turned out the mare w...

  For awhile now I have been wanting to do something about featuring an artist every week. There are SO many wonderful artists in the model horse hobby, and all I want to do pretty much is share some of their work, with links to their social media ,and basically give a shout out to them! Sometimes we all just need a boost and a lil support from others where there are no obligations and just to simply share because we want to. This goes for both to the professional, accomplished studios who have worked hard to achieve their artistry, and to the new and starting out studios, learning and growing with every horse they paint. :) We all are at our own pace and journey with different goals. We can paint for fun or personal enjoyment, or as some who paint as a side hobby or even for a few of us, it is our full time work! But we all think the same : we love to create and we love to paint horses...both in 2D and 3D scale.  This week's Artist of the Week goes to.... Elżbieta Zarzecka of...
