ahhh pastel...

Today I worked in pastel for the first time under my new Studio lights. This 5x7 is a study for the oil painting I'm working on (tentatively titled "When All is Said and Done").  I love this little study - I'm calling it "True Love" and if I can get the same feeling on the oil, it will have that title too.

By the way, my new lights are warm in temperature so I also turn on my Ott Easel Lite and the combination of both lights makes the temperature and the color very good.
