Down by the River

Original oil pastel drawing of a landscape on pastel paper (4.75" by 7").  Artwork without the frame is $40; please email hello@emilyjoyfineart.com if interested.

This is a medium size landscape drawing I completed using Sennelier oil pastels.  My goal was to create a river and landscape inspired by English artists who capture simple moments in nature. I love how the river has the appearance of being cold yet active, whereas the trees are warm and still. 

There are no known cosmetic flaws on this piece.  I placed this drawing in the "Imperfect Art" collection because I prefer my landscape drawings to be simple and calming, and this one has many details and activity with the rushing water, so it's simply a style difference.  Clearly I overthink things, but it just is not my favorite :)

All sales final.
