Revenue stream goals for 2024: (1) The creation of 12 pastel still life’s. Below is one example of my work so far. The plan is to create and pick from the best when 12 or more are completed. (2) other revenue stream goals will be paintings in one or more of the following mediums: oil, watercolor or gouache. It’s been a while as my focus has been on Shibui Found Image Art. A pivot is a good thing as I write about Shibui. I am loving Paul Rembrandt pastels. The colors are amazing.

It’s been since 1994 that I have had fun with the pastels. I began Shibui 2011. A lot happened after that. I have my new home in my cottage studio and just now feel I am underway! A new easel awaits me! Varooooom! Or perhaps its “Let’s move it! Move it! Move it! More like that! I love claiming my Boho cottage studio!

Good Morning Sunshine!

I sometimes feel like that! Cheeky little fellow 😜 ! Heavy rains last night so the earth really got a bath! My woodpecker was calling for food when I got the kids on the bus! Coffee is at the right. More bird seed comes and a set of brushes to play with gouache next. I am having fun! The still life’s are very good for me to do as they will waken me even more to my creative side.

The following pastel is indeed done. And the next one is being worked on.

have to think a bit more on it. Have to put some under glassine! So I can move on to others or put up my cork board. LOL!

there are five gridded black pastel papers waiting. And I will need to compose a still life. Guess it’s picking up a bit and moving things first.

A lot of wonderful responses to this one. The cast shadow of the bowl should be a bit longer I think.

Best wishes! Pejj
