About the Item
Artist Comments
"This title was inspired by the Beatles' song about a girl in their dreams," explains Pamela. "The colors, brushwork and wistful pose of the figure create a subtle tension between movement and stillness." Part of Pamela's newest figurative series. She begins her process by using large brushes to create strong abstract shapes to form the structure of the composition. She stands several feet away from her canvas and works with long-handled brushes to achieve a loose feeling in the finished painting.
About the Artist
Pamela Blaies unexpectedly discovered her passion for art. A move with her family put her children in sad spirits, so to cheer them up she painted murals on their bedroom walls. With time, she began looking forward to painting more and more. She works in "alla prima" style, a technique in which artists don;t wait for paint to dry and work with layers of wet paint. The effects of light and shadows in the world greatly influence her work.

- Flower Girl, Oil PaintingBy Sherri AldawoodLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Sherri Aldawood paints an ethereal portrait of a woman in white. She depicts her young model, Carley, in classical realism. Flowers daintily adorn the figure's brown wavy hair while golden light shines and illuminates her shawl and bouquet.About the Artist
Sherri Aldawood didn't intend to always paint flowers, but over time her love of gardens started to permeate her art. She focuses on the light and color of the flowers on the canvas. Sherri prefers alla prima, working with wet layers of paint instead of letting them dry. She keeps the paint as wet as possible by using walnut and clove oil to extend the drying time.Words that describe this painting: Joaquin Sorolla, John Singer Sargent, woman, female, girl, figure, figurative, portrait, flowers, floral, sunlight, bright, spring, summer, face, season, garden, outdoor, warm, Dan Gerhartz...
