Temple Bottle with Grapes and Fig by Darla McDowell

9x12 Inches on Linen Panel

Usually, my Sundays are spent cooking and puttering around the house, but this week, I finished all of my chores on Saturday. So, this morning was spent blissfully painting in my pajamas. I'm thankful for an understanding husband that doesn't mind my craziness. Life is pretty sweet.

My favorite part of this painting is the pureness of the early morning light. It is a bit bigger than normal and measures 9x12 inches. It's available through my Daily Paintworks Gallery.

I hope your weekend is relaxing and full of your favorite adventures. Happy painting!

I'm a little behind on posting my new artwork. With the "back to school" chaos going on, I have been creating, but there does not seem to be much time left over for photographing, displaying and blogging. Now that the first day of school has come and gone, I'm ready to get back to my daily routine. Here is a piece that I did a few weeks ago while on vacation in San Antonio. It has a loose, abstract-ish feel that I adore! I want to see more of this in all of my paintings.

KISS by Pamela Blaies

Green Grapes

5" x 7"

oil on linen panel

The elegant shape of this bunch of grapes is what drew me to them. The long stem just adds to the charm. I challenged myself to find the right balance between detail and abstraction so that they would remain convincing, but not too literal. Starting with a large flat bristle brush (size 10), I painted an abstract underpainting - pretty much simple color shapes. Right away I could tell I liked the flow of the shapes on the canvas. I went to a size 6 mongoose flat brush and added a little more detail, being careful to step back often to see it from afar. Then I got my knife out to work on the stem and highlights. Such a simple composition, but it is probably my favorite piece this month!  BTW - I translate KISS as "Keep it Simple Silly" stupid is a bad word in our house:)
