Rochester, NY Landscape Art by Colette Savage
Announcement
Welcome to my Etsy shop and gallery. I paint the world around me and painting with pastels is my absolute favorite way to do that. I am continually intrigued by all that this fascinating medium has to offer. I experiment with it all of the time, and find new ways to express how I feel about my surroundings. In addition, I am a teacher, Plein Air painter and YouTuber. Life is pretty busy, and I like that.

5 out of 5 starsI love this print because it is beautiful and the artist is local. Bateau Terrace is a favorite place our family bike rides to in the summer time and offers a beautiful view of lake Ontario from the shores of Irondequoit N.Y.

5 out of 5 starsI spent a couple of weeks searching on Etsy for the perfect painting to hang above my workbench - as a reminder of what we are working so hard to attain (getting out of the city). When I saw this one, I gasped. It is almost identical to the field behind my home growing up. Looking at this painting, I can imagine my house behind the tree line, and remember the countless hours/days/years, spent in that meadow and the woods. Thank you!! I see both my past and my (hoped for) future in this gorgeous painting. You are so talented, and I'm so happy I found your shop. I will be back! - Erin

5 out of 5 starsI still am rapturous over my purchase. I looked for weeks here on Etsy to find the perfect little artwork to my far bedroom wall, and Colette was so wonderful to work with. My pastel arrived in really secure, professional packaging, with complete instructions as to how to frame it. This has been one of the most satisfactory purchases I have EVER made online. I highly encourage you to shop here! Lucy
About ColetteSavage
-
Artist friends and I painting the magnolia trees on Oxford St. in Rochester, NY in April. Sunny day & frigid temps. -
It all starts with deciding which scene will be painted. -
A loose block in is done, followed by a pastel underpainting, liquified with alcohol. -
Gradually, layers of pastel are applied to create and define form. -
Working from large shapes to smaller shapes, details become apparent.
I draw and paint what I see and know best.

I am a life-long artist, dabbling in just about every medium. Over time, my love of color and nature has found a home in using pastels en plein air, or out on location. I want to share the joy I have found by painting in this wonderful way.
