A REGAL LOOK * 10" round pastel on wood panel *detail of image And this is the second piece I worked on for two hours at life drawing yesterday. Only about halfway done, but you can see my layering to build up the image. The first layer is created with a pastel wash to build up a mid-tone.Then the top sequential layers are pastel strokes, alternating between blunt to broad strokes. Really liking the wood as a substrate . . . fun, fun, fun!
