Autumn: Aspen tree tops, part 8

"The Sky is the Limit" (pastel/sold)

These are examples of a progression

"Hope" (pastel/sold)

 of similar subject matter.  I painted "The Sky is the Limit" first, trying to capture the feeling of looking up at the tree tops. After a few more years of practice with pastels, I painted "Hope" and felt more satisfied with the results. Canvas giclees of "Hope" are available through artforconservation.com Both paintings are inspired by Aspen groves in Autumn.
