Pastel - Oil Pastel On Sketch Paper
Description
The original sketch I did of potted Chrysanthemums in May 1972 in colourful oil pastels that I produced the larger artwork of the same subject on canvas with acrylics. I did this whilst in hospital having 2 stage surgery on my right ear, a terrible painful experience, sketching a plant bought to me by a very special friend, Michael, my husband's best friend who has passed away since. This was then painted in acrylics in 1985 and I kept the original as a keepsake and found it recently between the pages of an old book and thought it looked good enough to put on here for sale as prints. This artwork looks very striking on the accessories especially the weekender and tote bags, looks especially nice using an orange background colour when needed.
