Landscape near Calvinet IV
Oil pastel on paper of the landscape near Calvinet in the Cantal of the Auvergne region in south-central France.
In the early 1990's, at the invitation of Atkins Fine Art, I lived and painted the landscapes of France, noted for their vast areas of open spaces and golden sunlight. Every few years since then I return to absorb the beauty of the land.
I did this oil pastel on 8.5 inch x 11 inch water color paper.
The painting is signed in the lower right corner and is dated on the back.
