Oil on canvas

February 2014

Hello!  I am now using my website for future postings.

It is  pamelaswainson.ca

As of this month, I am trying some adjustments, be patient with me!  I would rather paint than mess with the computer stuff....but well it needs to be done so I will learn.

A little fun with my feet and wild accessories.

 This was a commission for a wedding gift for a couple who are now taking on the care of this orchard in Malagash, NS with their three young boys.  Congratulations Brenna and Sebastian!

Fall Blueberry Fields

 

5" x 7" Oil on GessoBoard  (SOLD)

 A slightly larger version of the little one, it went off to Gallery 215 and sold at the opening!  It was also featured in the Arts Section of our provincial paper (thank you Susan!)  I think it wants to be bigger yet!

Matheson Brook Road in Fall

 

Oil on Canvas 36" x 24"
This is one of my favourite roads, especially in the Fall.  I have painted this scene in my mind so many times....this seemed to paint itself.  We have so many lovely old roadways here to explore.

Book Cover.....
No photo today, I have spent a good part of this week on illustrations for my friend Laurie Brinklow's new book of poetry to be released in the fall I'm here for the Music.  Don't want to spoil the surprise.  It was really fun and especially as I have known her a long time, I hope I have an interesting perspective to bring to the work. 
I am back to my borrowed space today!  I have a larger painting on the easel and can't wait to get back to it.
