"Tree at Dusk"... 7" x 5" pastel on lightly textured black acid free paper. This original pastel by Michael Jarman is not available for purchase.
Yesterday evening my wife and I were driving home from Wilmington and I was watching the passing landscape as sunset approached. I love the colors and shadows of pastoral scenes just before the sun goes down. As we drove along I took note of a tree in a field with a backdrop of brilliant sun light striking the ground a few yards behind it. I tried to drink in the details as quickly as possible so I could paint a similar scene later in my studio. The result of that encounter is this small painting -- "Tree at Dusk."
