Never say things are done! It’s always later when you see what needs to change. And so today’s journey into things is building more into the pastel painting of this still life! Stronger shadows needed on right side, so my light source works better, and a change with the horizon line. Then it will become a better painting.
When did it get to be Friday? This week seems to have flown by!
But today, I have coffee to the right, morning journal, mechanical pencils at hand, birds are fed and fresh water offered, peanuts….. it promises to be sunny, birds are singing. Kids are off to school. Ollie had a shoe issue…last minute but we worked through that. Nick of time. I was back in studio before 8:15, the time I sat down.
Last night my good friend Alice and I took a look at the 4 pastels I did this week and another still life sketched out. That was when the discoveries were made that changes were needed. So no biggie, more consideration of composition is all.
I will work those before starting these two still lifes.



One discovery with the paintings was there have been to many lights creating shadows.
Best wishes! Have a great day! Pejj
