"Pals for Tea" by Lynda Cookson

I often keep surfaces (paper, board or canvas) from failed paintings and clean my palette knife on them ... or fill them with palette knife strokes of left-over paint. They make interesting backgrounds and props for simple, warm-up paintings. Here's one of them:

"Blue Tea Pot" by Lynda Cookson

Another tea pot from a few years ago. Long ago sold but still much loved.

"Green Tea Pot" by Lynda Cookson

This is reaching back a few years when some studies and daily paintings were signed TPP as they were done as demos for students of my studio, The Painters' Palette. TPP was the official signature of work produced in The Painters' Palette studio. They sold on eBay at the time (I no longer run an eBay store).

I have always loved tea pots, for what they represent as well as for their shape ... fat and round with useful appendages and an interesting lid to top it off. To me they represent family and friends, comfort and home - and all that goes with that.

So I present "Green Tea Pot" ...

No Time for Tea by Pamela Blaies

4" x 4"

It is going to be crazier-than-usual busy around my house because of my kids' last week of school. I will have to be creative (and miss some sleep) to fit some painting in. What better time to loosen up my style a bit with some quick teacup studies.

Carving Out Time for Me by Pamela Blaies


6" x 6"
oil on linen panel

I had a thousand things going yesterday, so it was tough to carve out time to paint, but I was determined. I headed to my studio, turned off all of the phones and felt like I was entering a spa. As I listened to music, the composition seemed to put itself together. I used a lot of paint and intentionally kept my brushstrokes loose. With my palette knife I gave juicy highlights to the lemons and sharp reflections on the cup with gold trim. This has turned out to be one of my favorites, it feels fresh and full of color and light.
