Key West Hanging Out

Oil on Canvas  pinted en plein air

Key West on a clear day, early morning invites one to just hang out and enjoy the view. This was painted en plein air on such a morning. Of coarse I sat down and enjoying the breezes after the painting was finished.

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.

Hawaiian Dreams Seascape Oil Phyllis O'Shields Artist Contemporary Impressionism

Hawaiian Dreams Oil Seascape Phyllis O'Shields

Original Oil Painting on linen canvas 24 x 36 

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.

Jamaica Greater Antilles Pastel Seascape Painting Phyllis O'Shields Contemporary Impressionism

Exploring Jamaica Cove Greater Antilles

 Plein air pochade - Pastel on Japanese Kasuiri Kozo Bark Hand Laid Paper

copyright Phyllis O'Shields 2010

This pochade was done on a beach in Jamaica, Greater Antilles, Caribbean.  These first studies are quickly done to become familiar with my surroundings. The Blue Mountains are in the background. (Blue Mountain coffee, yum)
 Jamaica offers beautiful views of Paradise from the mountains and the ocean, making it perfect for artist to backpack into the wild.   .

  I like to use rough Kasuiri, Kozo Bark hand laid paper from Japan which has texture that adds to the environment on the beach. Often I finish with a mixture of sand and bugs on the paper. It is very forgiving when using en plein air.  These sketches  will be used in a series of my plein air explorations of islands recorded in journals.   They are going into a current book under construction now.

Seascape Hawaiian Paradise I by Phyllis O'Shields

"Hawaiian Paradise I" Original Oil Painting on Canvas 24 x 36  -

Hawaii is truly a paradise. Every island in the chain and every view transports you into another world of beauty. I lived in Kailua, Oahu for  many years and traveled to each of the islands on painting journeys. The Aloha spirit serves to make the views even more beautiful.  I hope all of my paintings of Hawaii remind you of that special beach that takes you away into a very peaceful place.

Original Oil Key West Storm Approaching by Phyllis O'Shields

Original Oil Painting on canvas 30 x 40 inches.


This painting was done on location before a hurricane reached shore. The emotion of incrediable cloud formations and the smell of an approaching storm was overwhelming.  The location here was being scouted for an outdoor painting workshop at a later date.

I paint many studies in Key West, living half of the year in Miami it is a short distance to drive down. I have many friends there and I am presently working diligently to educate and  point volunteers for the Sanctuary Friends of the Florida Keys http://www.sanctuaryfriends.org/   This group is vital for working with clean up days and now the oil spill approaching. Great articles and updated oil spill information on this site.

My mission as an artist as many of you know is to preserve these beautiful special places on the earth for future generations to enjoy.
