I haven't posted here for a long time. Been using the WetCanvas forum more and more.
A lot more work than I anticipated on this one, by far. It still needs a few touch ups, but I am going to leave it for a couple days.
Thank you for taking the time to look it over.

| This is really beautiful!! I wish I could paint glass to look like that! I tried to give it 5 stars but for some reason it only took one, and then I got thrown off line. That's the LAST time I try using those darn stars!!!! Anyway, you have an amazing talent! |

elizabeth08: Very nice of you!
iglazier: Thanks for the comment. As for how I do it. Lots of pastel, lots of blending and lots of patients.  I have taken a few workshops with Dianna Ponting (http://ponting.com) to learn her process of painting.
1Painter42: I enjoy the feedback, help and the wealth of knowledge over at wetcanas. The "pastel" area is really great. No egos and internet forum bullies there. Just good people to get along with. Some of their other forums, however, have a few jerks in them I have found.
gene: Thanks! |
