This is my second attempt at pastel. What do you think? I love using them, like the feel and can put up with the mess. Please comment.

a very striking image, I'd hang it on my wall ;)

Hi! Mabo. I like this, I agree with Dorothy, it's a very eye-catching painting, and such a beautiful shade of blue, (claphands) (claphands) Shirley

That is an impressive second attempt at pastels, although a simple image very striking.

Thank you all for your comments. Just wish I could paint some decent landscapes - even one would do!!!!

It is just a case of practising, remember 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration :) and of course observation.
