This is a painting I worked on yesterday (8/28/11), start to finish about 3 hours. I have been working on moving a little faster, mainly because of limited painting time and my need to paint more, and because I tend to over work my paintings. It was done on pastelmat, 22x17 using Mt Vision, Great American, Art Spectrum, and Mungyo soft pastels. I went through 3/4 of one color, GA Cypruc 115.4, for the first layer of sky and lake. Mt Vision are the main brand using mostly purples. The orange sunrise is Mungyo and the trees on the shore are Diane Townsend 53 and 50 (love these for darks!). As always, it was loads of fun!
I learned that I need a shop-vac to clean up. I have pastel dust everywhere!
