Original Paintings by Darcy Nybo

I'm a newish painter who just loves to create. And yes, I know what my finished work looks like. It looks like I'm a new painter, but there's a certain naivety to it that makes me say, go for it! I started painting on my fence and it grew from there. Many of my paintings are inspired by tutorials and others simply fall out of my mind and onto the canvas. All prices listed do not including shipping and handling. All paintings, unless otherwise noted, are on 1/2" thick stretched canvas with wood f

Tumbling

100

Picture this in your favourite spot where you can get lost in its many meanings.  16 x 20 x .5 on canvas. This one is currently in my living room. Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Writer at Work

50

I love Picasso and his playful ways. This was so much fun to create.  8 x 10 x .5 on canvas, it may be small, but it delivers an impact when you see it. This one lives in my office. Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Beach Time

75

This painting was the one where I think I actually mastered waves hitting a beach. I do love this, so don't be surprised if I cry a little when you buy it. 12 x 12 x .5 on canvas. This one has found a home in my bathroom but I could part with it if you really love it. Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Waterfall and Butterfly

25

Another tutorial where I was surprised by the mechanics of painting water. You'll see after this I got on a bit of a butterfly and blossoms kick. 8 x 10 x .5 on canvas.  Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Emerging

25

I love the thought of new beginnings through change. This painting embodies that for me. Life as a caterpillar, then a cocoon and finally, a beautiful butterfly. 8 x 10 x .5 on canvas. Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Fantasy Moon

25

Imagine a world where wolves howl at the moon while a fairy picks wild flowers and butterflies dance in the moonlight. This is it. 8 x 10 x .5 on canvas.  Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Moon Dance

25

As the moon rises and the cherry blossoms fall, butterflies emerge in the moonlight to celebrate life.  Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Family

100

I've always loved the colours in African art. This painting symbolizes friends and family. It's about growth and understanding and acceptance, regardless of origin. 16 x 20 x .5 on canvas. This one currently resides in my guest room. But if you ask nice, you can have it. Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

Red Sunset

25

I was told to paint over old canvas and not waste paint. So here it is. One painted over canvas created with leftover paint and a strong imagination. Despite the bumps and brush hairs embedded within, this may be one of my favourites. I can create a similar one for you - any size. This one is 8 x 10 x .5 on canvas.  Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.

JS Autumn Love - Print

30

When I first started painting, everyone loved this one. The original has sold as did a print. I'm keeping one, so there is one print left. I will not be making any more. 11 x 14 x .5 on canvas.  Price does not include shipping or handling. Contact me for full costs.


MURALS

Fences, walls and sheds, painted to brighten your yard. I started out painting on my fence with no idea what things would become. Today people love coming over to wander through the yard and look at the art. It's very wabi sabi, and I love it. Connect with me and we can discuss doing something similar, or wildly different for your fence, shed or exterior wall.

I see this every morning when I look out my bedroom window and it always makes me smile. What do you want to see when you look out your window?  Cost does not include paint, or time spent on cleaning or priming area.

Van Gogh on a shed

$5/sq. ft. for min 50 sq. ft.

One of my favourite paintings and I was able to paint an homage on my shed. The windows fits perfectly with the buildings. I even added a TARDIS on the right side which most people miss.
