"Her Prescence" by Darlene Bock
Pastel
17’’ by 22’’
$625
The moment I tried pastel it was LOVE at first touch! My passion for drawing now had
an expression in color. I am inspired by many subjects, but the ones that fascinate and excite me the most are people - especially those caught in the midst of life, unaware that they are being observed. When painting, I expand on what I see, keeping my strokes visible allowing the viewer to “see my hand” and better experience my process as well as the interaction of color, in a painterly-realism style. The various papers I use have a rough texture to hold the pigment. This surface allows me to layer colors that stay where I put them, without disturbing those underneath. For me there is a joy in transforming the commonplace into something unexpected!
