A Twist in Tale...

2009-12-07T17:54:00.000-08:00

My painting "Dragon Tail Twist" is featured in this lovely treasury on etsy. This painting is a steal at only $99.00. To view "A Twist in Tale" on Etsy and see the other items featured visit Etsy Treasury

This painting is part of an older series called "Kung Foo Circles". I have always admired martial arts and Asian mythology, primarily because of the themes. True Love, Perseverance and Self Sacrifice, Good Deeds and Rebellion against Oppression all are embodied in the martial arts and in the myths of many Asian countries. One belief that is a common thread in Pamela’s Kung Foo Circle Series is that animals have human qualities and fighting styles that we mere humans long to possess. For example, in order to survive in the wild, animals evolved natural fighting skills and in martial arts it is believed that emulating these skills will assist in helping one to prevail in combat. It is also believed that certain animals have human qualities we all desire. Butterflies can bring flight and longevity. Tigers are graceful, powerful and deadly. Dragons have supernatural powers and deep wisdom.

Happiness Factor

2009-10-29T08:29:00.001-07:00

I'm really excited as I am being featured in an Etsy treasury called Happiness Factor. My painting, Happy Hour Low Tide is the painting which was selected.

I like the title of this treasury because it really touches on what I strive to share with people through my artwork. Owning something because it gives you pleasure, living life now and striving to do things that bring you and your loved ones happiness and getting rid of negativity. All of these factors are important to me in my own life and are elements of the paintings I create. I'd love to hear your thoughts about art, happiness and of course this very nice treasury!

Armed Robbery at Museum

2009-09-29T19:00:00.000-07:00

Armed Robbery at Museum

An artwork valued at $1.1m (£675,000) and entitled Olympia by the surrealist painter Rene Magritte has been stolen this morning during a daylight robbery at a museum in Belgium. The nude portrait was stolen from the artist's former home in Jette, a museum dedicated to Magritte's life and work.

Although entry to the museum is by appointment only, two armed men forced their way into the building and ordered staff to lie on the floor while they made off with the painting. No shots were fired. The painting depicts the painter's wife, Georgette, lying on her back with a shell on her stomach.

Electric Blue Urban Art Modern Original Abstract Painting FRAMED PMILLER

2009-09-29T09:20:00.000-07:00

I love the mix of modern and older styles of architecture that you find in cities. I especially like to think of the people that live and work there when I paint cityscapes. When I painted this piece, "Electric ...Blue" I was imaging all the people in the little clubs dancing and drinking, making connections, while the business people in the large skyscrappers prepare for their next working day as "Masters of Wealth, Technology and Politics".

Bridge Across Time Listing

Inspiration: Inspiration Series Collection - This series is inspired by Patrick, a young talented artist who was taken from this world at a tender age. His family asked Pam to create a series based on his sketches. In the beginning of her inspiration series, she combined her love of science with elements from his sketches. However, Patrick favored very traditional cubism with geometric twists and simple surreal landscapes and Pam quickly began to pull away making the series more her own. She uses two approaches to the paintings in this series. One is impressionistic landscapes with her own brand of figures in a cubism style. The second is using her cubism figures in a very futuristic surreal landscape with swirls and strange moons. All of her paintings are ready to hang. She uses quality framing and mats for this series. If you wish to purchase the piece without the framing, please contact us for a price quote.

Volvo Boats Orignal Painting or you may purchase a poster or fine art poster at Cityscapes: Urban Jungle Gifts

From the Urban Jungle Collection: Living in a city can be an intense, spontaneous experience. They pulse with light and activity. Cities are industrious and busy by day. At night, their mystery and lushness come alive. A city can stimulation your passion and all of your senses. In the urban jungle series cityscapes, Pam captures the electric colors, the stunning skylines and the interesting architecture that can be found in a cityscape.
These paintings have wonderful pastel and jewel hues. You'll get a hint of whimsy, however, the artist added stark black lines and shimmering metallic acrylic paints to give them a modern, edgy feel. Pam's Urban Jungle Series paintings have been described as "Modern impressionism with a twist", and as "Colorful, Bold, and Joyful Masterpieces!” Her simple style is almost childlike but in reality, her paintings are carefully planned to be different from tradition impressionist paintings. The paintings in this series are done in both acrylics on canvas and watercolor/mixed-media on heavy watercolor paper. All of her paintings are ready to hang. Pamela uses quality framing or gallery wrapped canvases with the sides painted.

Art for Charity-Tips for Artists

2009-08-06T07:59:00.000-07:00

Contribute Your Talents to a Good Cause
Art has found its way into the Tour de France. Depending on your definition of art, it may have always been there (Fans' costumes! Crop sculptures! Handmade signs and banners!). But now Lance Armstrong, in his first Tour in four years, has teamed up with Nike to enlist the talents of 30 of the world's foremost contemporary artists for an exhibit entitled STAGES, which opened in Paris last week. Details are sketchy, but as far as I can tell, the exhibit consists of a few Trek bikes that were decorated by the artists. (Yes, this recalls visions of Cow Parade and its infinite clones--artists working with the surface of an existing form.) Other works were created specifically for the show.

After its Paris debut, STAGES travels to New York, Los Angeles, and Portland. The artists' works will be sold with proceeds benefiting Armstrong's foundation to fight cancer. You can't argue that the artists are making a contribution.

I've written a lot previously about donating art to charity events--cautioning you against donating too much or feeling obligated. But there comes a time when your passion for a cause is so deep that you would regret not using your talents to help out. Rather than wait for the requests to come to you, organize your own charity event by teaming up with a nonprofit organization and at least one celebrity. Lance Armstrong might be out of reach, but there are probably celebrities in your town that would be willing to lend their name to a good cause.

You could donate work that you already have available, but you'll get more publicity if it's work created around a theme. I hate to say that because I'm not crazy about themed art, but I know what gets picked up in the mainstream media. If publicity is a goal (and it should be if you're trying to raise money!), a theme might be the way to go.

Let's look at some of the local celebrities and nonprofit organizations you could team up with.

Celebrity Chefs + Food Bank + Artists
Purchase plain aprons for artists to decorate and then sell or auction the aprons at an event that features the chefs' creations while raising funds for the local food bank.

Newscasters + Literacy Program + Artists
Ask artists to create artists' books. Exhibit the books at local libraries and galleries before holding a sale and having a party at a bookstore with proceeds going toward a literacy program. Bringing in the bookstore (a retail space with its own following) is a bonus to the partnership.

Sports Stars + Inner-City Sports for Kids + Artists
Ask artists, or pair up artists and sports stars into teams, to decorate baseball caps, footballs, jerseys, or anything else associated with your celebrity's sport. Ask a sportscaster to be the MC at the party and sale. You're likely to get TV coverage on the sportscaster's station.

One final note of interest: Lance Armstrong is said to be riding a few of the artist-decorated bikes in the Tour de France, including the bike by Damien Hirst to the finish line in Paris.
Know This . . .
Making a contribution to a cause that's important to you is extremely gratifying.
Think About This . . .
The more people you include in your event, the more publicity you will receive and the more money you will raise for a worthy cause.
Do This . . .
Contribute your talents to a good cause. Bring in a local celebrity (or celebrities) to help attract attention. Be diligent in your research to ensure your nonprofit is in good standing and well thought of in the community. There are many charity watchdog organizations out there. Try http://charitynavigator.org as a starting point.

Also, understand that--at least for now--when you donate your art, you (the artist) are able to deduct only the cost of your materials for U.S. tax purposes.

SALE ON EBAY Sunset Seascapes Landscape Paintings by PMILLER

2009-07-15T07:34:00.000-07:00

My acclaimed 'Happy Hour Series" paintings and embellished giclees will be going on sale over the next few weeks.

The Happy Hour series is where you will find Pamela’s landscapes, seascapes and cities when the sun is setting. All of these paintings are created with traditional and metallic paints in the palette of a sunset. Many collectors describe her Happy Hour Series as having a hypnotic effect because as the day transitions into night, the paintings change. They go from light, airy golds into deep, rich coppers. Happy Hour is when you begin to feel at peace, kick your feet up, sip wine and enjoy the beauty of a transition into night. We hope her paintings will make you think fondly of your favorite sunset adventure.

Happy Hour Embellished Giclee

Beautiful Sailboats anchored at sunset make this one a popular choice. It is also one of the few Limited Editions (1000), I am doing.

Happy Hour Maryland Ave Embellished Giclee
