Description
This is an image of an original pastel painting of Blushing Beauty tulips from my 'Tulipomania' series. These delicate pink and yellow tulips were on display at the Chicago Botanic Garden last spring. They were so elegant and beautifully-coloured that I felt inspired to make them the subject of a pastel painting, as I felt that their characteristics would interpret well in the softness of the pastel medium.
1st place (tie) in the Spring Logo for the Midwest America group contest, Fine Art America.
I have given the painting an Impressionistic touch with the sketchy, painterly background providing a backdrop to the three particularly lovely floral specimens in the foreground, which I rendered in more botanical detail.
Please note: the FAA watermark does not appear on the purchased print.
