What’s my connection?

As O.M. Norling, I’ve donated a painting for the past 10+ years to the High’s biggest fundraiser.

Excited to team up this year with legendary winemaker, Jim Clendenen, founder of Au Bon Climat. He’s donating 25 cases of his 2018 California Pinot Noir. I worked with Jim and his team to design a custom label featuring my recent Gray Crowned Crane painting.

O.M.?

A slight case of extra time.

Trusting that there will be an end to all of this social-distancing and pandemic stuff, I’ve focused on staying busy and keeping an optimistic outlook. Before the crisis, I was planning a show entitled Lost In Translation for early 2021, now shooting for ‘sometime’ in 2021. It‘s all good, I’ve dreamed up 15 sketches I’m turning into paintings and the show will happen when it happens.

Finishing up two commissioned paintings, which opens up a little space in the studio for new commissions. Reach out if you’re interested or just looking for an indulgence beyond your nightly gourmet ice cream.Tell me everything you want your painting to be… in five words or less, Just remember, no people, no pets.

Beginning work on a new series called Lost in Translation. This collection of paintings will be shown in Atlanta at some point in 2021. Stay Tuned!

Praise

It’s hard to imagine building a home around a piece of art, but I did exactly that. I instantly fell in love with the piece and knew it had to be the focal point of my home. The piece has such drama and whimsy that seeing it everyday fills me with the same joy it did the first time I laid eyes on it.

At his most recent show, I was beyond thrilled to come home with my favorite “Ornamentation, Secrets and Sanctuary”. A delightful doe balancing life’s challenges on the prettiest emerald green settee… It not only speaks to me visually, Wow! by the way… it puts a smile on my face every time I walk past and admire it. I notice a little something different… and am reminded that every moment is a gift!

I have two of O.M. Norling’s paintings at my winery (Au Bon Climat) so I can admire them daily…the imagery, richness of paint, and attention to detail is captivating. It is classic. I find myself constantly needing a closer look.
