Wildflower Field Study

Wildflower Field Study  8x10"
Pastel on paper

This is a small pastel study I did in preparation for a full size 24x36" pastel I am working on as a commission for a dear friend. The Wallace sand paper that is the base of the actual commission piece is now being permanently dry mounted to the foam core, so I will be able to start the final work in a few days! Yea!

Loose and vibrant - reminds me on an impressionist painting!

Deb, you captured both softness and vibrancy in this gorgeous piece. I love it!
