'By the Poolside' 5x7 pastelToday I am sharing the third painting in my plein air hibiscus series. I wish I had done more while I was in Florida. I love this technique and I have some thoughts on how to translate it to other flowers. Now if I only had time to get in the studio and really play!

and what was the technique you mention?? curious. love the soft vs definition...as a Floridian I'd know you were hibiscussing.
Thanks Cindy!! I did an underpainitng with watercolor first which I often do but this time I spent more time developing it than usual before adding any pastel. It probably could have stayed as a watercolor painting. My goal was to add just enough pastel but not to overdo it and cover up the watercolor.It was done on sanded Uart paper.
