Only A River's (Gonna Make Things Right), Original Impressionist Landscape Painting 9" x 12" (HxW) Pastel on Paper Hand-signed by the artist. A combination of an impressionist and expressionist landscape, Dina Gardner's interpretation of the light in this gesturally painted artwork gives an energy and vitality to the work, with the use of rich reds and purples to depict the mountain's rock face. The cool blue waters then re-center the work, grounding the composition and giving it a serene feel that calms the viewer. Images with frames are examples only; this work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: I love music. I have it playing in my house and my studio all day long and I sing all day long. While traveling through the national parks in our RV this year, we were constantly listening to music and my head got stuck on an album from Bob Weir...

Warm Water, Framed Original Contemporary Impressionist Seascape Painting 12" x 24" (HxW) Pastel on Paper 15.5" x 27.5" x 1" (HxWxD) Framed Hand-signed by the artist. A soft color palette of blues, greens, and purples is used to depict the clear ocean water as it begins to curl over, cresting into a subtle wave, just enough to make a satisfying crashing sound of water-on-water. The entire artwork is overtaken by the water of the sea, with no land or sky to divert your focus from the vastness of the ocean's depths. Artist Commentary: As an artist, I just love being able to take creative license and paint what my mood dictates. The photo reference for this painting was of New England waters and the day I painted this it is was cold and rainy. I was looking for warmth, not 20 degree temps! I took out my set of pastels that remind me of warmer climates and painted this in that palette. The luminosity of pastels really comes through in this painting and just like that, I'm transported under a palm tree watching...
