Abundance, Floral painting by NY artist Celeste Plowde
I learned the art of acrylic and pastel painting through private instruction, after having spent my career as a designer of printed fabrics in the New York market place. I am a graduate of the College of Design, Art and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati, with a major in the History of Art, 1977. Later, I studied printed textile design at Parsons School of Design, in New York. Immediately afterward, I began free lance work for several design studios in the garment district of NYC, where I did re-coloration work for printed apparel fabrics, and sold my own designs through Bread and Butter Designs,also located in New York. In addition, during the 1980's and 1990's, I designed a number of needlecraft and stencil books for Dover Publications. Currently, I am working on a series of exotic birds and other animals done in acrylic paint, with a palette knife, for texture and brilliant color. I consider my paintings to be representational or impressionistic in nature, and I use fantasy colors because what I see often makes me feel these colors,and what would make an interesting composition, rather than using realistic colors.

"Impromptu Ballerina Rose Bouquet" by Karla Nolan
I
studied oil painting with Daniel Edmondson some time ago, a marvelous
teacher and fine person. He paints the most beautiful still life
paintings, something I never felt I could even approach with a brush or
palette knife. I was inspired, however, more than I knew, to attempt a
more "rugged" or less refined painting recently, with the thought of the
pink ballerina rose bush planted in front of our house as the subject
matter. Dan has a more representational approach and I just tend to
abstract my realism, as you can see! (I might add here, he teaches some
amazing painting classes via DVDs, you might want to check into
these....he's on Facebook with more information....)
"Impromptu Ballerina Rose Bouquet", 14"x11" unframed palette knife oil

Thanks for viewing my art! Greetings from Fort Collins, Colorado
"Life is an onion and one peels it crying."--French proverb
Escapism. Defying time. Serenity and solace. Reliving treasured moments...the reasons I paint and make artwork. The creative acts are surely the most pleasant and yet difficult of all. Color and form are special friends. The challenge of perfecting artwork is monumental and exhilarating. This effort has grown to be both friend and family, which are the two most important aspects of my life. Judaica is my most challenging art...Hebrew and I don't always get along!
I'm mainly self-taught in art, relying on intuition, experimentation, benefiting from studying books, visiting museums, galleries and learning painting techniques from other artist friends/relatives. I've studied pastels with Clive Tyler, taken oils with Daniel Edmondson. My newest medium is painting on glass, inspired by an Italian master, bringing this art technique home and applying my own topics. My oils are mainly with palette knife.
This art style might be called "abstract realism", an oxymoron in its own right. Favorite contemporary artists include Cruciani, L Horowitz, Berberian, S Stork, C Tyler, D Edmondson.

Teeter Totter Temperatures by Pamela Blaies
An Apple, An Orange and a Single White Rose
oil on linen
5" x 7"
One thing they say in Texas is, "If you don't like the weather, just wait and it will change." That has certainly been true this week. Last Sunday had a high of 76 degrees, then two days later the low of the day was 22! Now, today has been in the 70s and by Sunday it is forecasted to have a low of 30. This see-saw weather is taking a toll on me and I've been feeling a little under the weather, but I thought I would share a little petite I finished this week. Hope you have a great weekend!

Don't Go Through Life, Grow Through Life by Pamela Blaies
One Pink Rose and a Ginger Jar
9" x 12"
oil on linen
I just returned home from attending a workshop with Quiang Huang. He is a fantastic painter and teacher. His workshop was fun and he did several demos. I picked up so much just from observing his technique, use of color and attention to value and temperature. The more I learn about color, composition and value, the more I see how the infinite ideas and possibilities will take more than a lifetime for me to explore. Here is a piece I painted this afternoon. I used a brush for most of this one, but there's nothing like a palette knife for beautiful, juicy highlights!
