I often find I'm very tied to not only the reference photo but also the "idea" I had in mind when I envision what the finished painting would look like. But yet I love the expressiveness and looseness people achieve when they let go of these things. I suppose its a work i progress, absolutely love your fall foliage painting!Vanessahttp://vanessaturner.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14672405.post-45365066662172740402018-12-04T13:50:02.926-05:002018-12-04T13:50:02.926-05:00Hi Karen, I just wanted to say that I have thoroug...Hi Karen, I just wanted to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed many of your videos and I find your work incredibly awesome. I used to resent pastels (like all dry media except for charcoal), but apparently they can create very beautiful, unique, and expressive artwork.

Isn't it wonderful that they don't go bad, lol!lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01867886481362543250noreply@blogger.com
