Back to School Bliss by Pamela Blaies

oil on linen

Click HERE to "like" this piece in an online painting competition!

I'm a little behind on posting my new artwork. With the "back to school" chaos going on, I have been creating, but there does not seem to be much time left over for photographing, displaying and blogging. Now that the first day of school has come and gone, I'm ready to get back to my daily routine. Here is a piece that I did a few weeks ago while on vacation in San Antonio. It has a loose, abstract-ish feel that I adore! I want to see more of this in all of my paintings.

"Under The Surface" Original Still Life Floral Painting by Colorado Artist Nancee Jean Busse

I belong to local CSA. When we pick up our weekly allotment of produce, sometimes we are allowed to pick a bouquet of flowers from an unruly patch of Colorado wildflowers. I gathered this armful of blooms, brought them home, and placed them in a plain glass vase and put them on my windowsill. I loved them! The star of the show for me, though, was how beautiful and delicate the stems under the water’s surface looked. The background is a series of glazes, all whites, off-whites, beiges, pale pinks, and browns. The flowers are, well… flowers. This painting received an honorable mention in the Artist’s Magazine annual competition: 7800 entries–18 winners. Even though the original sold fairly quickly, the prints are wonderful!

This painting is sold, but prints are available, contact Nancee at njovmc@gmail.com

Untended Consequences by Pamela Blaies

Untamed Summer Beauty

14" x 18"

oil on linen

in the early stages...

This summer has been very busy and I've let my yard run a little wild. I went out back early in the morning to check on things the other day and the weeds were going nuts, so I wrangled my kids to help me out with the weeding and pruning. We cleared it up a little, but it may take me all fall to catch up. Loaded with an armful of rose clippings, salvia and flowering vines, I headed to my studio to take advantage of the untamed beauty.

Busy Weekend Filled with Beauty by Pamela Blaies

Antique Roses - SOLD

Two art receptions kept me busy over the weekend. I was thrilled with the gorgeous opening reception for my solo show at the Goodrich Gallery in downtown Dallas. There was a nice turnout and several pieces sold during the opening including "Antique Roses." If you didn't get a chance to make it to the opening, stop by and see it sometime this month - it is worth the trip!

Click the photo above to see the painting video of Antique Roses

At the Breckenridge Fine Art Center, I got to visit with other artists and collectors at this year's stunning national juried exhibit. It is on display through September 7th and I'm honored to be included with my piece "Apples and an Antique Pitcher."
