Pastel and water colour on white paper. 22 x 36
cm
She's half
stretching, half leaning (is there a word for this?) I've combined
water colour and pastel – not a clever combination but I reached in
haste for whatever effects I could put down speedily. Water colour
is transparent, pastels opaque, and it's a bit like a bacon and
meringue sandwich. Not a good combination.. but I do like the air
of arrogance or peace about the picture. Pastels are best on
textured tones paper – avoid white paper, like I used here,
I hope you have liked
the pictures so far. If you liked any of them enough, you can buy the
original: £100 unframed plus P & P. Email me for more
information at nandnjmellersh@yahoo.co.uk.
