"Nubian Doe" Dairy Goat
New Varnished Oil Painting
Unique original art to beautify your home, One-Of-A-Kind (OOAK)
5 x 7 inches art size on gessoed artist-board Framed size of 11 x 9 (Please see photo of 2.5-inch-wide frame corner.)
About this Painting:
Each summer I enjoy seeing the animals, especially the Nubian dairy goats, at the Nemaha County Fair in southeastern Nebraska, the part of the state near Missouri, Iowa and Kansas. This gentle, lovely doe munched happily on a piece of hay, which I changed into a flower while painting her. While small in size, the art is an example of my finest painting, with a high degree of delicacy and refinement. It has the same care that I put into my large, costly portraits. It is unique, for your own art collection. This subtle artwork would enhance a home library or office.

Credentials
Most of my paintings are represented by Lewis Art Gallery in Omaha, Nebraska.
In 1994, I had a solo art show at the Nebraska Governor's Mansion. The Omaha Symphony ASID Interior Designer Showhouses displayed my portraits in 1998, 1999, and 2000. Ducks Unlimited requested art of country children (not of ducks!) to make limited edition regional prints in 1998 and 2000. I attended the 2001 National Convention of American Society of Portrait Artists at the Metropolitan Art Museum in New York City. My art has been featured in the magazine Nebraska Life. In June 2008, Carpentree published one of my birdhouse oil paintings as "May You Abide" and published two garden images in January 2009.
Since 1989, my profession has been portrait commissions in oil and pastel. Since 2007 I have begun to paint small oils, using some of the ideas I have gathered over many years. Some paintings will be inspired by photos I have taken over the years. Some of them will be life studies, painted without the use of a camera. (Life studies painted from nature will be offered about two months after the blooming time, to give the oil paint time to cure.)

Romantic Realism
Since 1990, my style has been called Romantic Realism, a kind of painting that emphasizes beauty and themes of optimism and virtue. I know that life has its sad side, too. Before painting I worked as a registered
nurse. My sister continues to work as a hospice nurse, in a profession that I admire.
Signature
I sign small artworks Nancy Lee Moran (or NLMoran when my full signature may draw attention away from the image itself).
I will enclose a certificate of authenticity and a paper regarding the care of oil paintings.
The art has variations of gold, umber, and sienna. Some monitors may alter colors. Some may make the image lighter or darker than it is.
Materials
Gessoed hardboard
I use Winsor & Newton oils from England and Daniel Smith oils from the USA, only the ones that earn the highest lightfast ratings, along with a small amount
of Liquin alkyd resin for glazing.
I varnished the painting with satiny (semi-gloss) varnish.
I go online twice a day, since I must devote most time to family and paintings. I request, therefore, your patience in my answering questions online.
Caution: Prolonged sunlight and fluorescent lights may cause colors to fade.
Heat, high humidity, and dampness will also damage fine art.
The artist has already framed this art in a harmonious color.

Please let me explain about copyright and reproduction rights.
Under standard USA law, once a Work of art is created, it is copyrighted.
To reproduce (or copy) it, you must get written permission of the artist.
By the same token, it would be wrong for me to use (as a reference) a photo
taken by another photographer, unless I ask permission and offer to pay for
"use" rights. It would be wrong for me to take a copyrighted photo
(by another photographer) to a store to make a copy of it.
You will be the owner of this unique painting. The artist will continue to own
all other rights of copying the image and using it for other purposes, if she chooses. The artist
is the sole author of the Work and its design.
I know copyright can seem difficult to understand. When I was a new artist, it
seemed complex to me, also.
