New Pastel Accepted in Exhibit

Awaiting Fields, pastel, 12x18, $900. framed

Two weeks ago, I came across this field with the last remnants of this years snow. The field was shaded by trees and the remaining snow filled the plowed ruts. I immediately knew I wanted to paint this scene.   The added bonus was the full moon rising from the horizon as the sun was starting to set in the west. I could only shoot some photos and the next day painted my interpretation based on photo reference in the studio.
The painting was framed and entered in the Lowell Regional Art Competition and took the Juror's Recognition Award! The reception for this exhibit is on Sunday, March 25 from 2-4pm.
Thanks for viewing my work!
