For Cryin' Out Loud

More experiments with Golden's Fiber Paste, which I like. (It's texture seems to eliminate the additional step of having to apply the pastel primer on top of the other, more slick impasto gels.) This is 10" x 12" on crummy illustration board that buckled and warped under the pressure of all this gunk and stuff on top of it. Note to self: buy only good thick high-quality board.

Click on the pic to open a bigger version, where you can see the texture. :)

It's about 95% panpastels and just a few jots or tittles of the soft sticks.

was thinking that you might gain a lot if you darken up your shadows more. It will make the colors really zing..
