The size ended up at approx. 20' x 20'. One of the largest ones I have tried. It really took much longer to complete. jjj

Hi Jay!
This looks great You've handled the background well and the bird itself looks great.
Keep up the good work!

Thanks Mike! I even like the way this one turned out. It looks much better in person because of the size. Thanks. jjj

Hi,
It's nice. Can you share with me what brand of pastel did you use? What paper? Do you spray? Thank you.

Hi Sandi! Thanks for looking at my painting. I usually use Rembrandt pastels, but I do have several different ones I have accumulated in the last couple of years. I buy a couple of different colors of different brands to see how I like them. The paper I used for this piece was Canson.jjj
