I'M A LUCKY GAL . . . ANOTHER ANNIVERSARY POP!

SPRING AT THE DEL 10" x 8" pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR It's spring at the Del and the Del found a nice home.  Everything begins to pop and bloom during the spring months, as with art sales. So fortunate that my art is traveling to new homes to brighten someone's life. I believe that is the highest honor of an artist. Again, many thanks to Tirage Art Gallery for this sale,  as well as representation and support throughout the years!

MARILYN + THE DEL - pastel by Susan Roden

MARILYN + THE DEL sold - private collector Iconic . . .  no other words for the little lady. Time has rolled on yet she is still as popular as ever.  One of my dearest friends loves Marilyn and so I was commissioned to create a likeness.  It has been over 50 years since the filming of "Some Like It Hot" with Marilyn and Tony Curtis.  The film was shot in Coronado which is a peninsula of San Diego and considered one of the finest films ever produced.  Click here to read The Del's historical account of the filming. And thank you so much Alex!

A DAY OF TRAVELING TO THE DEL

SPRING AT THE DEL 10" x 8"w pastel, glass + gold frame   SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR One of my favorite places . . .  Hotel Del Coronado! Recently while walking through the grounds, I discovered several garden beds. They bordered behind the back of the hotel  and tier down to the beach. So now Del is now growing their  own herbs and many varieties of vegetables.  So green! 

SPRING HAS SPRUNG!

FLAG, PALMS + A TURRET 6" x 6" pastel museum glass + 12" square gold frame SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR A delightful, petite rendition of Hotel Del's turret.  Iconic yet something we generally take for granted here in San Diego. Amazes me that the image is  so world renowned. And since we're in the middle  of spring break, Coronado's beach is hopping! I know I have been pretty much MIA here in  blogger-land, but had been so wrapped up with  finishing our taxes. And this year the results were  not good, but Uncle Sam is pretty happy. Love  doing my bit with helping the economy!

A BIG THANK YOU TO TIRAGE!

THE DEL

HOTEL DEL pastel, 10"h x 8"w courtesy of Tirage Fine Art Gallery SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR Today is an exciting week for me with anticipation of a couple of out-of-state / country guests! So wonderful to catch-up with news, share wonderful dinners and just enjoy one and another's company. The excitement is killing me! I just can't pay attention to finish a started petite painting, so decided to post a recently completed pastel in Tirage's possession and available for sale. This painting is a slice of the iconic vacation landmark Hotel del Coronado . Even though the hotel is a conglomeration of several various shaped buildings, it is visibly known for it's red turret which graces the front entrance. The hotel which dates back 120 years, is a beachfront luxury resort as well as a location for motion films, such as Some Like It Hot, that starred Marilyn Monroe and Tony Curtis. There is even rumored a ghost, Kate Morgan, still inhabits the premises. She had...
