THE ART: This is an original Pastel painting “Unbloomed Lotus” by Melissa Tobia. Created after she took a trip to the Botanical Gardens, she liked the way the lotus was nestled on it's leaves and the composition. She likes to use very vibrant colors in her art. Each painting takes her many hours from start to finish to execute the level of detail and show the delicate textures in her work. She uses soft and hard pastels and pastel pencils on grey Strathmore paper. Images showing it framed are just a suggestion on what to do when you receive her art and is for presentation purposes. Size may not always be depicted in what is represented. In order to keep her art in great condition it is important to frame with archival materials (mattes, backing board etc), keep out of direct sunlight, and frame with a UV glass. Colors of the original art may vary slightly on different monitors.
This painting is unframed. Painting is shipped flat carefully for protection. One of a kind pastel painting handmade (not a print) original, colorful and detailed. She spent weeks perfecting details and textures.
