Colors for Spring

These are the pastels I used for the painting below and the one I am about to post. For my next Spring painting I have some new pastels. I went 'shopping' in my spare pastel collection and found some exciting new colors. What I usually do when I get new pastels is break a piece off for my box and store the rest....so I have hundreds of spare pastels that I just end up forgetting about. I had a great time picking out some fresh colors that I don't normally use. Can't wait to get painting!

That is what I did. I broke all my exciting new sticks in half, and put the 'working pieces' in a shallow container of rice.
Your blog is a source of inspiration for me as I explore the possibilities of pastels.
Thanks!
