A Vision in Pastel

This most recent portrait, “Angel in Waiting” is created in pastel.

Luck was on my side when I happened across a tiny little face captured by the lens of a camera. The light cast through the child’s hair impressed on my mind, an almost angelic effect.

I must say I was graced with having made the acquaintance of the photographer, Judithann . To find out this child also happens to be her granddaughter, Abbey, made it all come together perfectly in the end…

The original artwork is part of a private collection and is available for sale by contacting me directly, however prints will be available at Imagekind.com. To view the portrait in more detail please visit my website at www.DauneSheri.com.

Comments are always welcome…

    Hi Daune,

    This is such an interesting portrait. It seems like you have captured her thoughts as well as her curly top.

    Reach for the stars.

    Hi Daune

    Judy kindly sent me a link to view your rendition of Abbey and I have been blown away by your talent. I have spent some time on your site looking at your fabulous work and have now bookmarked your site.

    Abbey is a loveable little character and you have captured her essence famously. Well done, your work is inspirational!

  4. Dear Daune,
    Judy alerted me to your lovely pastel of Abbey. You have captured the “Angel” in all her childhood beauty and expression. The rendition of Abbey in the backlight is superb. Keep making such wonderful pastels!

    Unbelievable work as usual Daune. I love the curls in her hair and the way you captured her innocence.
    Very stunning.
