Enjoying the Outside....Inside by Pamela Blaies

Windowbox at a Brick Cottage

We are soon to hit a record here in the Dallas area of days in a row with over 100 degrees. If I have to go outside, I try to make it only a few minutes, it is just so hot! I miss spending time outside. Windowboxes let you enjoy a garden up close without having to brave the heat. This windowbox painting is full of fun texture and lively color. The bright red geraniums first grab the attention and then lead the eyes to explore the colors and texture of the wall. It makes me want to reach out and feel along the rough bricks.

Colorful Memories by Pamela Blaies

Colorful Windowbox

I've always loved windowboxes. They are so charming and full of color. I lived in Paris, France for a while in my 20's and there are beautiful windowboxes throughout the city and beyond. That time seems like a lifetime ago. But the little curtains in the window and the sunny colors of this painting carry my mind right back to my days in Paris.
