SUNSET + RIDGE with sketch - pastels by Susan Roden

SUNSET + RIDGE

12" x 12" soft pastel

Above, Sunset + Ridge, shows the finished soft pastel on

the left and the beginning sketch on the right. Of course

there's many interim layers that have been applied, but

for brevity, I'll just show you the beginning and the end.

I just love the sculptural process with building and layering

soft pastels!
