Very loosely based on a photo we took in Ajijic, Mexico. The pastel is more vibrant in person.
Collection of the artist.

About Jala
- Jala Pfaff
- Boulder, CO, United States
- I'm a painter (and writer and Spanish instructor) living in beautiful Boulder, Colorado. I studied classical art in an ARC (Art Renewal Center) school, Colorado Academy of Art, full-time for two years, in order to benefit from the rigorous atelier-style training. I am currently dedicated to exploring abstract and semi-abstract art, working in oil and also in soft pastel. I firmly believe that all human beings are creative, whether or not they have yet found an outlet for the innate creative urge, and that the creative arts are the highest form of human expression.

Jala! Love the composition , it's a different style, I like it.
Delicious and powerful simplicity - love it!
This is my new favorite of your new pastels. Love its simplicity.
I LOVE this landscape, Jala!
Obrigada, Fabio!
Laurel, Loriann, and Janelle: Thanks, guys. I actually decided I like it so much, I'm not selling it. :) Wish I knew WHY it turned out so well...it's mostly hit and miss.
Oh, Jala... this is so subtle and yet it glows. You are doing some really fabulous and important work!!
Hi Patrice, thank you! I'm enjoying this new direction, at least for now (you know how our own whims and taste can change from day to day). Important? Not at all compared to, say, brain surgeons, but nevertheless very important to my own artistic growth.
Please send your wonderful husband to my house. Paco also loves to 'clean' mens' beards! (The man at the nearby gas station gets his beard cleaned DAILY by Paco - to my chagrin!). Love the video.
