Trade Winds

Pastel on Wallis paper, 7" x 12 1/2"
$175 plus $7 shipping in U.S.
Email don@dailyartwest.com for purchase


This is a pastel drawing, done on a sheet of Wallis sanded paper. A friend sent the paper to me some months ago to try (thanks, Katherine) and recently I found it in my flat files. I haven't done any pastel work in years, but it was fun to dust off the boxes of Rembrandt and Nupastel sticks to depict this Maui cottage.

Don!

I LOVE the green on the front of that house!

One of these days I'm going to own a home and paint it all green!

Thanks, Dean! You're going to paint your house green? Mine's going to be blue and brown. :^)
