At the Plainfield Art League, I laid out a variety of pastels, including Nupastel, Rembrandts, Sennelier, and Unisons. Explaining as I worked, I roughed in the painting, working top to bottom and back to front. Then I went back into it and added detail. The whole painting took about an hour. This was a nice group of people, and they asked a lot of questions, which is always fun. There is nothing worse than a roomful of silence, but I love it when there is plenty going on as I work. I finished the painting at home, increasing contrasts, adding details, refining the design. Here it is.
