Multi media ... pastels, oils, acryilcs, you-name-it

On the off chance you think I only work in pastels, I thought I would post one of my acrylic paintings (from some time back). As much as I love pastels I do enjoy mixing things up a bit in my studio and I think having more than one medium to work in is good for learning. I work a lot in oils, too, and confess to loving the smell of a freshly laid palette.

The easel calls. Happy Painting!

  3. I didn't realize this one was acrylic - I always thought it was oil... she is, of course, spectacular and I love the little flower petals - telling a tale of what might have happened just moments before this peaceful scene - a little run through the flower garden or perhaps teaching the potted plant who's boss:)
