A while back, an artist friend and I took an overnight trip through the Finger Lakes with the sole purpose of taking photo references for future paintings.
This painting is from the the grounds of the B&B where we stayed. The B&B doesn't seem to exist as such anymore but the memory of walking surrounded by fog is still very fresh and brings me peace.
Beautiful painting Adriana.! I love the way you painted the mist in the background and yet so clear in the front. A peaceful place like you said. wonderful pastel!!
Donna, Thanks. Yes, this one is for the show this weekend. I framed it in a dark wide frame and it looks good. I hope someone else agrees with me and takes it home! I think this one will be a good candidate for a larger version. Hilda, Thank you.
I rediscovered pastels in 2001 and ever since, I've been painting solely in this medium. My preferred subject is landscapes, but on occasion I switch to still life for a short while.

Oh wow, this is gorgeous, Adriana! You totally captured the foggy look and feel. Is this one going in the show with your other small ones?
