Serenity, The Moor Klein Bylaer, Holland – 16H x 20W inches soft pastels on paper. Photo inspiration thanks to Willem van Leuveren Sr. Here is his main website. I never use other’s photos for my artwork but I was so moved by Willem’s photo, I asked for his permission to use it. Finished pieces are not replicas of the photos I use to create them. They stir up a lifetime of experiences and memories. Thanks so much, Willem!
