MN Untitled (Blue) is a 1979 R.C. Gorman oil pastel from the gallery’s collection. In oil pastel, Gorman worked at full intimacy: direct hand, rich pigment, and the soft edges that distinguish his original works on paper.
Like the rest of the gallery’s holdings, this work reflects Gorman’s devotion to the Native American women and Southwest landscapes that made his name. Works on paper are best framed under glass, where the pastel surface keeps its full depth of color. For collectors building around R.C. Gorman originals and fine editions — or the broader tradition of Southwestern art — this oil pastel is a natural fit.
Questions about this piece — condition, framing, or display — are welcome; the gallery team is happy to help.
