Painting Glass by Pamela Blaies

Apples and a Green Glass Bottle
14" x 11"

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!

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"

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.
