winter painting


With all the snow, I took the opportunity to take some photos to use for paintings. Nope, I just can't get out there and do plein air when it is this cold! ( It's been in the teens and 20s ).

Anyway, here is a pastel I did on a new surface- multi-media art board prepared with aluminum oxide grit. I think next time I will use the smoother side of the board; but this was an interesting experience. Also, all the pastels I used are my handmade ones.
