Paintings
|
 |
| Lush colorful full figure paintings
take flight in Paula O'Brien's art studio in Gibsons, BC. These intimate
portraits and lively images with costume, feelings and motion are
done in acrylics and mixed media and sometimes enriched with collage,
stamping, beads, mirrors and textiles.
Colorful images of children lost in the trance of interpretive dance
are my current series. |

Drawings
|
|
Life
drawings done in watercolor sticks are the fertile base of Paula's
visual art works. Rich layers of color are built up quickly into vibrant
figurative energetic drawings. The busy surface design echoes textile
embellishment references. |

Textiles

| In
the art textile section, you will see wearable art garments rich in
surface design embellishment, color and fabric combinations. Inspiring
samples of waterproof outerwear, felted wool coats, Fortuny pleated
silk dresses, needlepoint paintings, machine embroidery, fun applique
and more. |

Funky
Home
|
| In
the home section, you can see fun with color, textures and pattern
on surfaces from walls to floors, shoes, furniture and tiles. Even
the garden gets a good if irreverent dose of color and whimsy.
Nothing is safe from her decorative hand! Oh my
gosh, where is the dog...?
