Sketch of BLAST - 6" x 6" sky pastel by Susan Roden

Sketch of BLAST

6" x 6" pastel

A new year and analyzing a new direction . . .

For so long I've been creating my little skies, but now

am attempting to push it along after reflecting on my

body of art.

As one can tell, I love color!

And who doesn't if one plays with pastels?

But I notice I have a constant palette of bold and contrasting

colors, that typically are blue in hue with an occasional

red as above. So now it's time to take a step in an opposite

direction.

So bear with me please, and let's see where this all goes.

Sold! GLOW, by Susan Roden

GLOW 11" x 14" soft pastel SOLD - private collector So nice this pastel went to a wonderful home! Now I'll live in my memories of the Petrified Forest National Park, where I did a residency and was the inspiration for this painting. Thank you!

BLAZING RED

GLOW 11"h x 14"w pastel black with gold trim frame sold - private collector Night fell fast. The lower half of a thick strand of dark clouds turned blazing-red from the sun as it dropped to the horizon. And the night glowed.

FRIDAY BREAK

2 + A HOLE 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square white archival matte, glass + gold leaf frame PRIVATE COLLECTOR It's been a long week getting everything together for the opening of Frayed , so decided I needed a sweet treat to chill out. Nothing like a frosted donut which is always so yummy! When I was young my Mother used to make homemade donuts, which is indescribable. At that time my sister and 3 brothers fought over the "holes", which were a perfect one-bite affair that always melted in our mouths. Those were the days!

SUSAN'S . . . PLAYING AGAIN!
