Notes from the Easel: 'Keane' Pastel of retired Police Dog. Work in Progress.
http://lesleyannhartman.blogspot.com/2011/12/keane-pastel-of-retired-police-dog-work.html
Thursday, 29 December 2011. Keane' Pastel of retired Police Dog. Work in Progress. Start of a large pastel of 'Keane' a retired Police Dog. As this pastel was to be a surprise for his owner I have had to delay posting it on here. The above sketch was worked lightly with pencil and then vandyke brown pastel pencil on top so that it showed up on the photo. Proportions had to be exact at the first stage as corrections are not easy to do in pastel. Labels: Keane 1 sketch. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Creative Incentive: February 2014
http://marymjansen.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 6, 2014. How about a little splash of color for winter-weary eyes? Flowers are always fun to paint! I've been craving greens this long winter so I painted this fairy cove this weekend. My goal was to create a private, secret place.a place where one might sit on a mossy rock to pray or meditate. I used some pouring technique in the foliage and will continue to develop that method. I like the layering affects one can achieve! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Contact ...

Thursday, February 6, 2014. I've been craving greens this long winter so I painted this fairy cove this weekend. My goal was to create a private, secret place.a place where one might sit on a mossy rock to pray or meditate. I used some pouring technique in the foliage and will continue to develop that method.
