A Poem & A Painting: Lovebirds
Sep 26 2016 ·0Here we are, the last few days of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge! In some ways the time has flown by, in other ways it seems as if this month as been endless. I’ve been busy with Interior Design projects, travel, painting (for this challenge and an upcoming exhibit!), and putting the finishing touches on the new Pamela Copeman Art website. I can’t wait to share! In the meantime, today’s painting features one of my favorite subjects ~ birds. What’s more sweet than Lovebirds…
Historic Hingham Home: Media Room Update
Sep 22 2016 ·0Welcome back to the Historic Hingham Antique Colonial home I first shared with you last week. Previously, we toured the redesigned Family Room. Today we are moving to the front of the house and the Media Room. This room is where my client and her family entertain guests and have friends over to watch sporting events and the like. Once again they required ample seating, durable, stain-resistant fabrics and above all ~ comfort.
As you can see in these ‘Before’ photos, the room had some beautiful features (lots windows and detailed moldings) but there wasn’t enough seating and the furniture that was there wasn’t really in keeping with my client’s tailored aesthetic…

A Poem & A Painting: I Could Kiss You…
Sep 19 2016 ·0Inspired by my granddaughter Daisy, I am introducing new subject matter line for my paintings. Children’s Paintings are a bit more whimsical and lighthearted while still featuring vibrant colors, sophistication, and my signature “Pamela Copeman Art” style. I recently completed the first painting in this series, a giraffe with a crown, as part of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenge…
Historic Hingham Home: Family Room Update
Sep 14 2016 ·2Today I am excited to share with you a recent project I completed for a wonderful family. The home is an Antique Colonial, in the heart of historic downtown Hingham. The home was extensively renovated in 2004 so all of the amenities and framework for a functional family space were in place. However my client wanted the interior design of the home to be more polished, cohesive, and functional for their young and active family. I actually was referred to this client by Winston Flowers in downtown Hingham and it turned out to be a great match!
A Painting & A Poem: Sunflowers & Zinnias
Sep 12 2016 ·0Fall is in the air this morning and even the flowers are signaling that the days of Summer are starting to fade. Gone are June’s peonies, making room for the mums, sunflowers, and zinnias in the hues of Autumn. I was lucky enough to receive a beautiful bouquet of these flowers ~ though they may not be the bright pinks I favor earlier in the season, they do look very nice in a leopard print vase…

A Poem & A Painting: The Most Beautiful Home
Sep 06 2016 ·0Last week I visited Victoria, British Columbia. I’d never been before and I was enchanted with the beauty and charm of the area! Throughout this Summer I’ve been fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel, visit some amazing places, and stay in some beautiful homes (like the one in this week’s painting!). I am ever grateful to have made so many wonderful memories. By the same token, I am so happy to be home. It’s true what they say ~ there’s no place like home!
