Pastel on paper
Signed on the front.
I loved to visit my aunt, her home was like a time-machine set to the past, and though now gone from this world I captured some of my Auntie's treasures in this pastel painting, along with some pink roses, representing her well cared for garden.
A beaded milk jug cover, hand made, with soft blue crocheting on net fabric. The beads weighed down the cover, so it didn't slip off the milk jug, letting flies inside. A beautiful china half doll, a reminder of such beautiful feminine crafts. Alongside a hand-painted china dressing table pot, with a soft circuit of dainty little rosebuds. All on a white satin cloth. Soft and pretty. A perfect gift of nostalgia, lovers of antiques. Nostalgic memories are some of the most beautiful to have.
The image size is as shown, but there is extra paper past image size, under the mat, to allow re-matting if desired. Currently matted in an off-white double matt - ready to be dropped into a frame - framing size approx. 27.5cm (H) x 35 cm (W), this will be included when sent. A light protective 'sealer' has been used, and continues to protect this work.
