The original reason for this blog was to post my pastel paintings, but then I realized that I had a lot of other pictures that I wanted a place for as well. It has been fun going through my personal archives and finding some older and sometimes forgotten work (I have a pencil sketch from when I was 13 that I absolutely must post). But now it is time to go back to some of my pastels.
"Cowboy Take Me Away" resulted from my desire to play with softer pastels, like Sennlier. So, I broke down and spent the money (they ain't cheap like me) and bought a set.
Wow!
To think I missed out on using these for so many years. What a difference. I have since bought several sets of really expensive Unison and Schmicke. And they have been worth every penny. What a joy to use these soft as butter pastels over my trusty Rembrant.
