The Last of Summer

This painting was quickly done in 30 minutes. I used texture to add to the feeling of distress and frailty.  Using water, I caused the pastel to run and I did no cover texture.

I wanted a very loose and interesting texture. However I still wanted to retain contrast and vivid color.  Most of these types of decisions are made very randomly and quickly.

A broken frame gave me a chance to rework a picture which needed some new direction.

But I could have told you Vincent 
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
