Wende Caporale -- pastel portrait artist

"Alex and Tierney Dodge"

25" x 30"

This is a beautifully modeled double portrait of a little dark-haired boy in a bright blue shirt and a delicate brown-haired girl in a glowing pink dress. The pastel strokes add a liveliness to the background, while their childish expressions capture a moment in time. Beautiful flesh tones are evident, and the use of analogous and complementary colors throughout adds beauty to this composition.
