5″ by 7″ daily pastel painting, unframed
Originally painted for Karin Jurick’s art challenge. The original photo has a rower but I botched the rower and abandoned her although her shadow remains. I’ll be posting another version soon with the rower included.I guess you can say this is slightly surreal ;-)

Another marble.
I’m practicing with various marbles on a small scale for a larger work. My guess is that the larger work will be easier because I won’t have to squeeze my finger tips in little corners to blend the pastel.
