croton and flowers (pastels) Aug. 8, 2010.





croton and flowers  (pastels)





drawing


Well, I decided to give the pastels one more try. I knew there was something that I wasn't 'getting".  I used only the artist's pastels this time and not the wax ones, and got the colours in the picture by mixing them, on the drawing.


 It was fun, and I used a lot more pastel colour than I had before, so it would blend. ( Just like I saw the lady doing on-line when I checked it out!). 


 I am happier with this one. I didn't use any paint thinners and I did use the right paper this time! And I used paper one quarter the size of the first ones I was painting!
