Bahamas Passage by Phyllis O'Shields Artist Contemporary Impressionism

BAHAMAS PASSAGE EARLY MORNING PEACE 
by Phyllis O'Shields Artist, Contemporary Impressionism

Oil on Canvas  16 x 20 x .5 museum wrapped canvas painted around edges

This plein air painting was done early one spring morning in the Bahamas, it could have been painted on any of the islands. The morning's brief rain had just cooled off the air and one could still smell the rain.


Although a small painting 16 x 20 this will be used as a study for a larger painting.

One can only believe the clear light blues and greens of the water by being there to experience it. I hold painting workshops in the Bahamas twice a year. Presently I am taking request for inclusion in the November Artist Painting Workshop held in Nassau, Bahamas. The workshop will include pastels and oils painted en plein air over 5 days.

For more information on the Bahamas, Nassau and the Out Islands  please visit: Bahamas

Florida Everglades Evening Solice Oil Phyllis O'Shields Artist Contemporary Impressionism

Florida Everglades Evening Solice

24 x 36  Original Oil on Canvas - 

Gallery Wrapped Canvas painted around edges

copyright 2010 POShields

Evening approaching in the Everglades is one of the most peaceful times of the day. Birds rush about catching the last rays of sun or their last evening meal.

The Everglades sky changes colours constantly as the light filters through the last clouds left over for the day after the daily afternoon rain. Early morning or late afternoon are my favorite times to paint in the Everglades. This oil painting required many layers of glazes to achieve the glowing tones of colour present. I love painting the Everglades and all Marsh Eco Systems with wide open vistas, there is a feeling that you can see forever.
These fragile systems are critical to preserve in their natural state for all wildlife.

Hawaii Seascape Beach Oil Phyllis O'Shields Contemporary Impressionism

Hawaii Seascape Beach

A private Hawaiian Beach tucked away, everyone who lives in Hawaii has one special spot. This is mine.

Aloha and Hele Mai,

This is the place that I always go back to when I take time to relax and commune with nature, take part in a little introspection and revitalize my soul with the inspiration nature provides for future paintings. Living in Hawaii for a few years and now visiting there every year to paint renews my earliest memories that connect me to nature.

I always discover something beneath the surface In Hawaii , emotions tied to the subject matter are an elusive part of art. Every viewer will in their own personal context recreate this special emotion making the painting their own experience

Koi in Hawaii Pastel Phyllis O'Shields Contemporary Impressionism

Koi are the Image of Serenity and Peace. "
Pastel painted en plein air Oahu, Hawaii

http://www.oshieldsfineart.com/ please visit for more Koi images
Studio 704.394.7382

The history of Koi is as mysterious as they are beautiful. Popular conviction would have us believe that Koi are indigenous to Japan. In fact, they are even mistakenly called “Japanese Goldfish” They are actually from the Carp family.

Koi are believed to originate from eastern Asia, in the Black, Caspian, Aral Seas and China. Carp fossils have been discovered in South China dating as far back as 20 million years ago. Some varieties are known for their hardiness, which records claim can live for long periods of time if simply wrapped in wet moss continuously kept damp.

The earliest written records of Koi, or Nishikigoi, (Japanese for "brocaded" carp) were first described in writing from a Chinese book written during the Western Chin Dynasty, around 265-316 A.D. At that time they were described as white, red, black and blue.

Koi are believed to have been introduced to Japan with the invading Chinese and a first account of them being kept by an emperor in Japan, apparently dates Back to AD 200.

I hope you enjoy these images of Koi. I paint them en plein air from beautiful ponds in Hawaii.

Tuscany Sunflower Series VII

Pastel 12 x 16 without mat

Canson Mi-Teintes

Phyllis O'Shields Contemporary Impressionism

copyright 2011 PO'Shields

My Inspiration: Last of Summer Sunflowers on the back roads of Tuscany.

When visiting Tuscany each year I paint Sunflowers, Lavender and Olive Trees.
Each Tuscan Sunflower is different with it's own personality, thus I usually sketch en plein air

the one that jumps out at me.

There is nothing more beautiful than the Tuscan fields of golden sunflowers surrounding a golden rustic house with a terra cotta roof.
These are views that I use in large paintings, but for the sketching en plein air there is always one sunflower among the many that calls out to be drawn.
I will be posting over the next few weeks series of these plein air sketches.

Bravissima!

Highway One is surely one of the most beautiful magical places on this earth.
Every turn is a painting waiting to be created. I had the good fortune to live on 17 Mile Drive on the ocean and every day I painted the surrounding area without beginning to record all of the beauty there. Changing landscape due to fog early morning and late afternoon was a constant challenge. I love the fog and the sun in this area.

Tropical Seascape & Dunes Series

Painted en plein air
Phyllis O'Shields Artist Contemporary Impressionism

Paintings in this Panama City, Florida Dunes Series are the first of three for larger paintings. You can see the sea oats, dunes fences and sugar white sand. The most beautiful white sugar sand is in this area of beaches.

These are common beach paths used for many years. Over the years the dunes in this particular area have become much smaller. I will be adding paintings of beach areas where the dunes are very large later. I was born and grew up in this area of beaches and have a love for the Gulf Coast area that still influences me today. I hold yearly workshops along this beach area and we have great fun painting en plein air.

Development along this coast has destroyed much of the beach so it is really important to capture in paint the beaches as they are today and yesterday. I spent most of my childhood here on this beach. My love for tropical settings and colours was initially inspired along this coast.

Painting Global Wonders.. An Artists' Journey Creating a world of beauty filled with light, life and emotion, painting Seascapes and mostly Tropical subjects from around the world. I am a world traveler painting as I go, a visual journey depicting a changing way of life, as ocean front disappears from our landscape. My web sites are in the process of becoming an overview of 365 paintings of my Seascapes from around the world. This is a chronicle to preserve the changing of ocean views, the movement of life, and how the landscape under blue skies and the oceans is always in a state of change. Trained in European Classical painting and drawing but my personal style has developed more into contemporary impressionism with the use of bright tropical colours. I've discovered that all art forms that touch the viewers hearts are fundamentally the same; they are about revealing truth and beauty, they demand the utmost in time, attention, and must be grounded in excellent technique. My mission is to paint daily and create paintings that are full of colour, joy and light. ABOUT OUR WORKSHOPS I hold workshops teaching participants to nourish each of the five senses through mind/body awareness. Experiencing Art in all forms improves healthy behaviors, quality of life, mental and emotional well being. Next month in this Newsletter I will begin a series sharing information about the five senses and how to concentrate your efforts on accessing this wonderful sense in your daily life. My paintings are in private & corporate collections worldwide. About Blue Fish Studios Blue Fish Studio is a part of our creative team/staff that works with the production of more informal art works such as series of sea shell prints used for signed limited editions, sold in Audubon Stores and Book Stores, hand painted furniture, hand painted wooden screens, hand painted tropical fruit wooden bowls, hand carved blocks used for original silk and rice paper prints. We also create one of a kind silk sarongs that are hand painted.
