Hollyhock Garden
Pastel on Sanded Paper
Hollyhocks abound in Santa Fe and these were very happy sharing space with Geraniums. I started this painting at a friend's garden and finished it in the studio. I struggled to make the composition interesting, but once I weaved in more darks, the bright blossoms began to pop out soon I could hear it sing.
