White Amaryllis

“The inspiration is just my faith, knowing somehow that things will work out.” – Charles Pabst

Art lets you transpose to scenic landscapes or experience feelings that put your mind and heart at ease. It’s why collecting art is a lovely hobby to explore at length or indulge in. The Marcus Ashley Gallery invites curious visitors, novice collectors, and art connoisseurs to browse through its grand collections of past and present masters.

Tucked in the heart of Lake Tahoe, the gallery is an exceptional place to view and buy Charles Pabst art. Feel free to peruse the artist’s work in addition to the exhibits of emerging and established artists.

Pabst relies on the impasto technique of the impressionist influence to create White Amaryllis using thick layers of paint to create the illusion of textural depth.

The artist reveals a vase with freshly plucked White Amaryllis blossoms that create a lovely contrast against the deeper-toned elements. Citrusy, natural hues rise from the canvas against washes of dense blue paint for a striking finish. Pabst leaves behind visible palette knife and brush smears that elevate the symbolic purity, innocence, and ethereal beauty of the amaryllis bulbs.

White Amaryllis is the kind of still-life painting that will conjure feelings of comfort, calm, and contentment.
