Behind the Mansion

Plein air pastel landscape painting of the beautiful grounds behind the Curtis Mansion in Saline, Michigan

Pastel painting 8.5 inches x 12.5 inches $300

Please contact me if you are interested in this painting or similar artwork.

This is my favorite pastel painting from our day at Curtis Mansion. The honeysuckle bushes were in full bloom and I loved the way the sun backlit them and created a sparkling halo. I wanted to capture the deeply shaded atmosphere and the little glints of sunlight in this landscape and I was very happy with the outcome!
