“Sunflowers with Blue Glass” 5” x 7” Original Pastel Painting by Colorado Artist Margretta S. Perry







“Sunflowers with Blue Glass” 
 5” x 7” 
Original Pastel Painting by Colorado Artist Margretta S. Perry
PRIVATE COLLECTION

This little painting is part of a series of paintings of sunflowers. After visiting the Vincent Van Gogh exhibit at the Denver Art Museum, I thought it might be interesting to try my own sunflowers. I was disappointed not to see Van Gogh’s rendition, but have always loved his famous painting and decided to give the flowers a try. I used Wallis sanded paper as the ground and a mix of soft pastels.
