Something different this week
working from someone elses's photo.
This is an interesting challenge...
it might take you out of you comfort zone
but I also find it easier to be objective.

A secondary challenge
comes from the medium itself.
Paints such as acrylics
are very consistent in smoothness
whereas pastel can very widely.
Although I work with a variety of brands
I find the darks and deep blues
to be quite gritty and hard.
It's much more difficult
to get those luscious textures
one usually associates with pastel.
