"Southport Ambience" is a 14"x18" charcoal/pastel drawing of a perfectly beautiful front porch in Southport, North Carolina.  One of my favorite drawings and a type of drawing I'm trying to do more of after covering all the landmarks that identify many of the historic coastal areas on our shores.  I found this scene walking around Southport while looking for scenes to draw to make up a Brunswick County collection.  I took each section starting with the areas I knew would be charcoal and kept working toward the buoys, which I knew I'd put in pastels.  My question was if  I would ever consider putting the plants in pastels too...and I decided not to as there was more than enough interest on that porch that too much color would dilute out what I wanted to shine.  The unframed original 14"x18" charcoal/pastel drawing is offered for 595.00.  Signed and numbered, limited edition prints (1000) archival quality prints  (11”x14” image centered on 13”x16” hot press 300gsm paper) are available for 75.00.
