Marigold

Marigold, 1970, an oil pastel by R.C. Gorman rendered in warm golden and orange tones, depicting a woman in a kneeling pose wearing vibrant marigold-yellow drapery. Her dark hair and serene profile suggest quiet grace, while the artist’s soft modeling of form conveys both solidity and gentleness. The work demonstrates Gorman’s exceptional sensitivity to warm color harmonies and the human figure in repose. Perfect for collectors of Gorman’s 1970s work, oil pastel figural studies, and intimate Southwest fine art.
