Demonstration Preparation by Pamela Blaies

An Orange and a Silver Pitcher Study
12" x 9"
oil on linen

I'm finally starting to recover from "the crud." It is nice to be feeling better. Painting this study of an orange and a silver pitcher yesterday was just the way to get warmed up for the painting demonstration I will be doing for the Weatherford Art Association on Monday evening. I'll have less than an hour to paint so it should be fun to watch! Come on out if you are around the area. It will be at the Firehouse Gallery, 119 Palo Pinto, Weatherford, Texas, starting around 7 pm.

Color and Light Reflections by Pamela Blaies

Antique Glass and Red Tulips
oil on linen
24" x 18"

These red tulips begged me to take them home from the market. I had fun painting them all last week. In this composition, I put some antique bottles right up next to a bouquet of them which created some beautiful color and light reflections.

Painting Glass by Pamela Blaies

Apples and a Green Glass Bottle
14" x 11"
oil on linen

Surrounded by a sea of cool colors, the one Red Delicious apple in front tries to steal the show. But I think the star is the green glass bottle. Painting glass with all of the dimension, subtle color and reflections is challenging and fun!

Process in Reverse by Pamela Blaies

In Season
12" x 16"
oil on linen
Click any photo for purchase information.

I usually do small studies before painting a larger piece, but this time my process got all turned around. As I set out my composition, intending to focus only on a couple of pieces of fruit, the still life just seemed to put itself together inviting me to create the larger painting, In Season. I liked the colors and light so much, I left the composition right were it was overnight and painted two Petites (6" x 6") the next day. Fun!

Life's a Bowl of Cherries by Pamela Blaies

Bowl of Cherries
5" x 7"
oil on linen
SOLD

I love to paint cherries, but had a hard time getting my hands on any to paint over the winter and spring. The other day I was so excited when I found them at the market. I promptly bought 2 bags - one to eat and one to paint. Then I went on a little cherry painting binge. "Bowl of Cherries" just sold, but check my daily paintworks gallery to see more cherry paintings!

Square Peg Fits by Pamela Blaies


6" x 6"
oil on linen panel

I love this little copper teapot. I like that it is round and perfectly polished to reflect all the color and light around it. Putting it into a square composition was the perfect fit!

Cobalt Blue by Pamela Blaies


7" x 5"
oil on linen panel

I love this little cobalt blue bud vase. It is so deep blue, that it almost looks black unless I put it on something white. Then the blue really comes out as the white gleams through and reflects back onto the glass. Pairing it with lemons is the perfect complement.
