Moonlit Pears Alfresco Print

This pastel painting won the HONORABLE MENTION AWARD in the "5th STILL LIFE" international art competition organised by Teravarna Art Gallery in May 2023. I created this pastel painting entirely with a limited palette of professional fine soft pastel sticks on archival Fabriano Tiziano 160 gsm pastel paper made in Italy. The painting is my artistic interpretation of the dessert pears at a family dinner held on a rooftop during a warm night. I chose to paint this scene because the unusual illumination source of a full moon for this nocturnal scene led to a different yet interesting outcome of both colours and values, as well as of lights and shadows. The soft cool radiance of the moonlight gives a dreamy, ethereal effect for the painting. The signed painting will be shipped with a Certificate of Authenticity in rigid waterproof packaging. Note that the artist is not responsible for Customs payments or delays, that responsibility is with the buyer.
