"Daisies" by Lynda Cookson

Home and Office Wall Decor (in other words, me and my family team!) are now offering original paintings on our new Etsy Storefront, starting off with Stock Clearance prices. The paintings will be shipped unframed as a further cost saver and shipping is included in the price.

I'm loving trawling through all my images, both photographic and paintings, as I upload them to my various Etsy storefronts ... and, after feeling a little stale for a few months, my fingers are starting to itch again with the anticipation of painting fresh works.

"Daisies" is a medium size, palette knife, oil painting with all the depth and energy you would expect from this medium and technique. Her vibrance speaks for itself :-)

Not shown in the image below, is the monogram signature in the bottom right hand corner of the painting. Here you can see my logo watermark. The original painting has my monogram etched into the paint.

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!

How Bout Them Apples? by Pamela Blaies

Granny Smiths and a Copper Pitcher
7" x 5"
oil on linen panel

I've been intrigued lately with these little Granny Smith apples I found at the market. I love their color and that they are so shiny and polished that they catch the light fabulously. Here I paired them with a copper pitcher. Check out my dailypaintworks site to see more of these delightful green apples.

Honored to be Interviewed by Pamela Blaies

Red Delicious
6" x 6"
oil on linen

I was honored to be interviewed by a fellow artist, who features a different artist every month on her blog. It is a very engaging blog with lots of art. You can check out the interview HERE.

Red Delicious was another foray into Pthalo Blue. It makes intense blues/aquas, perfect for this blue glass jar. What really inspired me in this composition was the napkin. I loved the light play of the folds and the cast shadow of the blue glass.

Taming Pthalo by Pamela Blaies

6" x 6"
oil on linen

I've gotten a little behind on my posting and blogging. It's been a fun and full week with the kids' end of school parties, getting them ready for camp and my mom visiting. Today I will be working on painting #71 of 100. This petite painting project is so fun - experimenting with color and light, exploring composition and daily practice! On this one, I used Pthalo Blue instead of Ultramarine, just to see what it can do. It is strong and a little tough to tame, but wow, what beautiful deep reds it can make!

Red Apple Slices by Pamela Blaies


6" x 6"
oil on linen panel

Here is Petite Painting #7. To make the green grapes look illuminated, I painted the lightest part of the grape first to make sure the color I mixed stayed saturated. The cast shadows of the grapes really makes this light effect pop. Anyone up for a snack?

Apple Season by Janice Tingum

Apple Season

2.25" x 12"
Palette Knife Painting
Oil on Panel
Apple Season is part of my "Slice of Life" series.  The narrow, horizontal format suggests we are taking just a peek into the tree. And yet we can tell from this little scene that the tree was loaded with apples, ready to pick.

Original oil painting Tart Green Apples by Karen Tarlton

  Tart Green Apples
9x12
Oil
Luscious coral colors and peach hues play wonderfully with yellow greens I think. I picked these two models from my neighbor's yard and need to bake her a little pie in gratitude. So many tart, delicious apples! They make great models too....can hold a pose.

Weighty Matters, Hydrangeas, Apples & Scale by Roxanne Steed



16"x20" oil on Belgian linen mounted on museum quality board

"I think a painter is happy because he is in harmony with nature as soon as he can express a little of what he sees....."
- Vincent Van Gogh


I am so happy we planted hydrangeas! This is their second summer in our yard, and they are doing really well! We've got two varieties, a peegee hydrangea, with the white puffy heads that are so heavy with blossoms, they are draping magnificently over our picket fence! The other variety is a beautiful purply blue...with some of them going a rather hot-fuschia color depending upon the soil! I was experimenting with changing up my knife technique on this one...and of course studying the way the light falls in my studio window that faces north (seems to be a constant source of delight for me!).

Hope you get a chance to get outside and smell the flowers today!
