This latest commissioned acrylic on canvas of Mary’s Peak is helping fund my daughter’s trip to Greece to sing at a Choir Festival.

SOLD Coastal Drama Cannon Beach. © Pam Van Londen 2013. Oil on 8×8-inch Claybord panel. Unframed.
This new painting is a remake of an older painting, which I could not stand to look at anymore. This version has more drama and is much more fun to look at. The sand from the original plein air painting session is still visible, adding an interesting texture.
Purchase with PayPal. $60. Coastal Drama 3. © Pam Van Londen 2013. Oil on 8×8-inch Claybord.
A few years ago I did some plein air painting at Cannon Beach. Most of those panels sold. One did not, so I’ve revised it…and I like it so much better.
Here is the revision. The paint ought to be dry during the second week of May 2013.
SOLD. Canyon Dreams 33 © Pam Van Londen 2013. Oil on 8×8-inch canvas panel. Unframed.
One more in a long series of canyon vistas.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2010, Valley Morning 10, 8×8 Acrylic on Clayboard
The chilly morning with sunlight burning through the fog inspires me to paint! It is warm and cozy in the studio but I will have to venture out in the freeze to get the day’s list of chores taken care of.
This painting was stolen off the doorstep of its new owner when delivered. If you see it online or in person anywhere, please notify me or the local Police. Thank you.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Beverly Beach 5, 8×8 Acrylic on Clayboard. Unframed.
We visit Beverly Beach and Otter Rock a few times per year to rejuvenate. The sunset was spectacular on July 4 this year.
NFS © Pam Van Londen 2010, Heidrich Girls Surfing, 8×8 oil on claybord
To complete a set of beach pictures for the Heidrich Family.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Silver Creek Falls Middle North Falls, 5.5×8.5 watercolor
We spent a few days hiking the 10 waterfalls at Silver Creek Falls State Park. Even though it rained most of the time, we were able to hike them all.
Holding an umbrella for miles is like using a cane; a little extra work but worth it.
Because it wasn’t hot and crowded, we were able to hike pretty quickly.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crows on the Beach 12, 8×8 oil on claybord
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crow at the Beach 13, 8×8 oil on claybord
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crow at the Beach 14, oil on 8×8-inch Claybord panel, unframed.
The most popular subject matter at the last exhibit was birds, and more specifically, crows.
Here are three new images of crows in flight. The invented color image has a style I’d like to work with for awhile.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2010, Prince Edward Island 1, 8×8 oil on claybord
August’s focus for the Virtual Paintout is Prince Edward Island.
This scene is from Tryon Point Rd facing the Northumberland Strait.
Many families have boats in their yards. I’m not sure if they are no longer being used or if they are just waiting for high tide.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crow at the Beach 10, oil on 8×8-inch archival Claybord panel; unframed.
Crow has something to say, either, “Hey, painter, move along; this is my log,” or “there is a scrap of food here and it is mine!”
I’m continuing with the same technique I’ve been using for months now…transparent oil paint over an underpainting of alizarin crimson, with obvious and very loose brush strokes, on archival Ampersand Claybord panels.
I like how the paint soaks in and semi-dries enough to paint over it immediately. It has a tacky surface unlike oil on gesso, which seems to sit on the surface and get pushed around instead of allow new layers…I just don’t have the patience to wait for it to dry before adding new layers.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crow at the Beach 9, 8×8 oil on claybord
Nine of the 14 paintings of crows I’ve done this year have new homes. I must be on a roll.
Most crows do not live a year. But some live to year 14.
Learn more about them from Cornell Ornithologist Kevin McGowen from Ithaca, NY.
SOLD © Pam Van Londen 2010, Crows at the Beach 8, 8×8 oil on clayboard
This crow symbolizes my desire to take flight and vacation somewhere.
I won’t have much opportunity to get away from my routine life until August.
I shall live vicariously through all your vacations until then.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2009, Coast Fun 1, oil on 8×8-inch archival Claybord panel. Unframed.
Remembering summer again. These kids were so excited to get to the surf to build a castle.
$50 © Pam Van Londen 2009, Coast Drama 6, oil on 8×8-inch archival Claybord panel. Unframed.
This is the first of three paintings started en plein air this week at Taft, Oregon, south of Lincoln City. I forgot to bring more white with me, so the other two are waiting for a chance to be finished up.
The waves were dramatic this week but the bay was calm. Check back later this week.
