As promised--this is my very first pastel painting. My husband and I were visiting relatives in Cumberland, Md., and touring a quaint downtown area, when I noticed a small art supply store. The rest is history. It is done on paper, I believe Mi-Tentes, or one similar. It was a long time ago, early 80's. I copied it from a "flowers of Texas" brochure. It still hangs in my living room, as I love Texas wildflowers, and it fits in with my Texas Hill Country decorating theme. At that time, I hadn't learned the "thou shalt not copy"rules(except for practice and personal use), but then I don't have any intentions of selling it.
Beautiful, Rita! Thanks for sharing! (wish MY first pastel painting had looked this good!)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rita! I would like to see your first painting. Know how wonderful your work is, I can't imagine it being anything but good.
