Painting #31 seemed so far off a month ago, but here we are, thirty paintings to the half way mark of the challenge. And the third day in a row I painted. It feels good.
A couple of months ago I purchased some new pastel paper called Art Spectrum Suede. It feels smooth to the touch, but I was surprised at how much pastel it took. It will take a while to get used to it, but I think it could become another favorite.
I lined the light box with black paper and it made a big difference. It was easier to see the reflective colors and I could see the shadows better and both of those things are important. Maybe I will take a photo and show off the 'pour man's light box' in the next post.
This is painted on 5 x 7 blush colored Art Spectrum Suede paper using a variety of soft pastels. Thanks for looking.
