I rarely work larger than 8 x 10" due to physical disabilities, but I started to understand the way that affects composition. I can't get as complicated in a small painting as a large one, but being able to work fast makes a big difference in whether I can do it or not.<br /><br />I get outside every couple of weeks and one of these times I will do a pastel. Usually I wind up doing a watercolor but I've got my kit set up and maybe next week will be it!robertsloan2arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02598847116529877475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14672405.post-42723230066940304112014-10-17T08:21:30.241-04:002014-10-17T08:21:30.241-04:00Thanks Sandi!

The studio painting (at top) was done in about 1 1/2 hours.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17239336384191511625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14672405.post-88176737754269642572014-10-17T07:20:31.340-04:002014-10-17T07:20:31.340-04:00Great work , Karen .

When you say you don't spend a lot of time on the plein air paintings , I assume because the light is changing fast and you want to paint another view.<br />Approximately how long did you spend on the plein air portion of your painting ?<br />Thanks, SandiSandi Graham Pastelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07015873565452711457noreply@blogger.com
