Medium
Pastel - Pastel On Archival Board
Description
This is an image of an original pastel painting on archival wood board from my 'American Landscapes' series. I had been painting autumn scenes of this Maryland nature preserve in oil paints, and I wanted to try it in a different medium. Painting it in pastels gave it a more Impressionistic look, with juxtaposed colours creating visual interest and the softness of the pastels capturing a sense of the warm, hazy afternoon light. I enjoyed layering the brilliant reds, golds and purples of fall maple trees, and contrasting them with the soft blues of the sky and water.
