This painting is from a photo that a friend gave me from her trip to England. I really liked the contrasts that I accomplished in the painting. I used Wallis sanded paper as the ground and a mix of soft pastels. This painting is matted and framed, ready for hanging in a 12” x 12” frame.

“Take a Stand” 5 “x 7 ” Original Pastel Painting by Colorado Artist Margretta S. Perry




“Take a Stand”  
 5 “ x 7 ”  
 Original Pastel Painting by Colorado Artist Margretta S. Perry


PRIVATE COLLECTION

This little painting is of a little grove of aspen on the road toward Mt. Evans, Colorado. The aspens have a root system that sends up “shoots” to make new trees. These are probably all connected by the same root system…family, so to speak!
I used Wallis sanded paper as the ground and a mix of soft pastels.

All paintings are either framed, or matted and framed. If you would like pictures of the finished product, I can send those if you are interested in a purchase. If you wish to do your own matting/framing, the painting can be sent with a protective sheet between foam core or other protective boards. The shipping costs would be less to mail in this fashion.

This painting is from a photo my husband took on the way up to Mt. Evans. We went to see the “colors” and it was pure ‘eye-candy’ up in the mountains.
