Stone Water Sunrise. Original signed soft pastel painting 8 1/2 by 11 1/2 (21.5 by 29.5 cm.) on 9 by 12 (23 by 30.5 cm.) paper. Unmatted, unframed.When we first moved to the Island, the large rocks along the water's edge seemed like a beautiful and unusual rock garden--particularly when the lake was calm.The rocks still feature prominently in many of my paintings. They are a reminder of the grand scale of time, and there's a strange comfort in their constancy--they've sat there just like that since long before I was born, and so they will remain, long after I 'leave'.Please note: The artist will retain all reproduction rights for this image after the original painting has been sold.All my pastels are sold unframed and without mat. I prefer the velvet peachy texture and unaltered colours of unfixed pastel paintings. My pastel paintings are partly mechanically �fixed� by the finger pressure I use to blend the soft pigments, without need for the texture & tone-altering application of a spray fixative. When I am framing my pastels for display, I do so matted, under glass without fixative spray. The purchaser can make their own decision of whether to fix the image prior to framing in discussion with their framer.All pastels are signed and dated by me in the lower right corner leaving a �� allowance for the mat. I use Strathmore or Canson pastel paper and pro quality soft pastels.Pastel paintings will be shipped in a snugly-fitting Crystal clear bag firmly sandwiched between two pieces of taped-together foam core, all within a sandwich of clean, recycled cardboard exterior. The foam core provides support and protection from damage during shipping, and also eliminates movement of the image against the crystal clear bag surface. Buyers can expect to find some imprinting of the pastel image against the bag when the painting is removed, but this will be minimal and will not perceptibly alter the painting.I was first intrigued by pastels early in 2007 when a fellow watercolourist started to get stunning results with this medium. Now soft pastels are my preferred painting medium---I love working directly with the pure pigment in mixing shades with my fingers. I love the direct, tactile involvement in creating textures and tones. It�s the closest painting has ever comes to sculpting for me in terms of the tactile + visual satisfaction.
