PURPLE + YELLOW TREE - pastel landscape by Susan E Roden


PURPLE + YELLOW TREE

8" x 8" soft pastel on sanded paper

12" white mat, glass + black frame

$275 - tax + shipping inclusive 



With the new year, I'm off to a fresh start!
I've been absent much on my blog, for life has
thrown so many twists on the day-to-day events. 
But I've missed all, so this year I'll be more present. 

Above, PURPLE + YELLOW TREE is a pastel I've
created for my upcoming class at the New Mexico Art
League that begins this Friday, the 6th. 

PURPLE + YELLOW TREE is a sample of utilizing
bright complimentary colors in a scene. Below, is 
an image of the 2 pastels I've created with one using 
subtle complimentary colors and the same scene with
bright colors and a more graphic approach. 

And the scene is from the Desert Dairy Farm's oasis
where I was so fortunate to have a residency in
2021+ 2022! Love that place!
