0.0 x 0.0

"Luminous Magnolia Grandiflora" pastels on charcoal paper 23.25" W x 18" H This painting is an original Pastel painting with an illustrative vibrant impressionistic style. This pastel painting was created based on a photograph I took in Astoria, New York. I had a beautiful Magnolia Tree in front of apartment. I also use to have a magnolia tree in front of my house as a child. I liked the softness of the background and how it blended with the front magnolia flower. I really was attracted to the colors and how they played off each other. I like to use very vibrant colors in my art. Magnolias seems to always be a part of my life because everywhere I live there is a beautiful magnolia tree.
