Sheepy ! in pastels

After MANY abject failures at painting sheep, I was inspired by an example in Fiona Peart’s new book about water media.  I am greatly pleased with the results of challenging myself in several ways.  For starters, I don’t like working with pastels !  Then I used the canvas board to get lots and lots of tooth for the pastels to use.  Throw in that I don’t enjoy drawing, ( and what else can one do with a pastel stick ? ), and you may have the answer to the lack of inhibition I came up with.  At least it is recognisable as a sheep–even if it is a bit blue in the face.

 

What next ???
