Lonnie Blackley Jr. Signed Artist Proof State I Hand-colored Lithograph Ohio

LONNIE C BLACKLEY , " House on the Lake" Artist's Proof 8/20

I can sell this unframed, which will probably be a better shipping price.

Lonnie was born in Spartanburg, S. C. His earliest childhood years were spent on a farm playing in fields, creeks and old barns. His love of nature and buildings is transferred to his art.Lonnie enjoyed working with Pen and Ink and also Pastels so combined the two mediums and developed it into the combination that he does today. Pen and Ink is very time consuming especially with the amount of detail that Lonnie puts into his artwork. One piece can take anywhere from 3 weeks to a couple of months. Before the pastel color is applied to a piece, if it is decided that hand-painted lithographs are going to be done, lithographs are done of the ink work and then Lonnie adds the pastel color to each lithograph individually. Once pastel color is applied, full color lithographs(prints) can be done.
