Butterfly Bush




















Butterfly Bush

8 in. x 10 in., soft pastel on velvet board, framed to 11 in. x 14 in.

$300, framed 

This fun pastel piece was painted plein air at an annual event at Black Forest Nursery in Boscawen, NH in the early summer.  It's a beautiful place for artists to work, and the event, focused on pollinator gardens, draws a crowd. This wonderful cluster of fuschia and violet butterfly bushes was calling me and I set up my easel to paint them.  Love the way this one came out, very lively with dancing colors.  It's matted in a navy blue mat and silvery frame.
