Still Life and Landscapes by Nancy Roach

Pastel on paper.

My love of color and design is reflected in my pastels, a medium that lends itself to immediate, gratifying results. Many layers of color can be applied and mixed on the paper’s surface.

Surrounded by magnificent country, I have a wealth of inspiration. My landscapes are executed from memory after a brief sketch is made of a captivating scene, thus the dreamlike, fantasy quality.

I use live models for my still life pieces. Sumptuous fruits bought at my local farmer’s market provide endless seasonal subjects.

All pieces have been sold. Please check back for new works as the site is updated.
