Sunset Bird Textured Art by Nicola Furlong
Sunset Bird Textured Art by Nicola Furlong
One of my latest textured art pieces called Sunset Bird.
Though smallish in size (about 9″x5″), this striking piece glows with sunset colours.
A stylized bird strikes a bold pose, created on a reclaimed wood canvas, sculpted from a thick layer of joint compound, decorated steampunk-like with beads and watch bits and finished with bright acrylic paint.

This painting is…

Do You Know a Psychopath?
Do You Know a Psychopath?
During some research for a thriller novel concept, I stumbled across The Wisdom of Psychopaths, What Saints, Spies and Serial Killers Can Teach Us About Success by Kevin Dutton. It’s a fascinating read, slightly humbling and frankly, shocking.
You see, Dr. Dutton says not every psychopath is a serial killer. If fact, most psychopaths aren’t wicked or crazy, but they are all charming, ruthless and…
