GEISHA - SOLD

When I first started painting, I worked with an incredible instructor for years, Sandra Johnson, a wonderful artist who works primarily in oils and pastels. Sandy started me off in pastels which I learned to love. For pure color, they cannot be beat. This is a 14x18 pastel on Canson paper.

Wow Carol, you colours are truly wonderful - they glow! Lucky buyer.

Thanks Liz, I did notice on my computer that the colors are stronger on the screen than they actually are in life. The highlight on her hair, for instance, should show as a golden orange shade.

This is stunning....so feminine and gentle...great color! Computer images of paintings are never faithful....much to our disadvantage!
