I can't understand exactly why I am not consistent in what I create. I suppose because I'm still so new to pastels. I had started on some other flower paintings and finally set them aside for another day. This image actually had my kids playing in the surf. I opted to leave them out for the time being. I may attempt to do the painting again and add them in then. For now though, I like the simplicity of nothing but the ocean, the beach and the sky.

Nice work. This has a relaxing mood to it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words on my blog.
You asked about paper in a previous post. I'm not much of a pastel artist as I work mostly in oils, but most pastel artists use Kitty Wallis paper. It's supposed to be one of the best. Albert Handell uses this.
Good luck with your work.
