Cat Fine Art Painting, Feline, Garden, "CAT IN THE HYDRANGEAS!" The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe





I love CATS! I have been a cat lover all my life. My dad brought home a kitten for my mom when she was pregnant with me and I have never lived without at least 3 or 4 or more! Having them in the garden is also a wonderful treat. This colorful, playful painting shares the joy of having a feline friend join you in the garden.

Wildlife Art, Bird, Raven,Printmaking “Celtic Raven” The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe


The Raven is mysterious bird in many folklores and legends. In this Solar Etching I decided to put a Celtic Raven Mandala in the background. the legend of King Arthur Arthur is associated with ravens. In area of Cornwall, which is steeped in Celtic lore, it was believed that Arthur didn't really die, but was magically transformed into this bird. Interesting for me as I had a cat named King Arthur who passed away and currently have a black cat named "Raven'!

Wildlife Art, Bird, Heron, Nature, Printmaking “Green Heron” The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe

The Green Heron is one of my favorite birds to spot on the river while I am kayaking here in Florida. They often can be spotted along the shore or wading in the water fishing. They are much smaller than their relatives the Great Blue Heron but I think they are much prettier. This is a black & white hand-pulled solar etching. I have also done one that is hand colored after the printmaking process. You can message me if you are interested in a color rendition.

Nature Art, Insect, Printmaking, Fine Art For Sale “SPINY MUREX” The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe

The Spiny Murex is an amazing delicate creature. The specimen I worked from was about 5 inches long with crazy sharp spikes. It looks so delicate upon first inspection but this little critter protects itself really well from predators. It was a challenge to draw. This offering is for

Print Making, Wildlife Fine Art, Nature, Bird,Water, “Bat Falcon" by The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe

The Bat Falcon (Falco rufigularis) is a fairly small raptor found in the tropical lowlands of Central America. It gets its name from hunting bats. This Bat Falcon is a permanent resident at the Toucan Rescue Ranch in Costa Rica. The flacon lost his wing and no longer has the ability to fly. Although I feel awful he is living captivity he certainly would have died in the wild. It gave me a chance to see him up close and personal. He is extrodinary to say the least! It is an edition of 25 and the colors may vary as each are handpainted.

This is one of my latest Solar Intaglio Prints of my FAVORITE FROG! The drawing was etched onto a polymer plate by exposure to the sun. The plate was inked by me in the traditional method of intaglio printmaking and hand pulled on an etching press. After the print was pulled I hand tinted it with watercolors. This is a one of a kind mono print. The price includes free shipping in the continental USA and comes unframed
