Schminke and Unison Soft Pastels with Charcoal Pencil

on Dark Grey Sennelier PastelCard, 13" x 19.5"

This is yesterday's sketch with colour added - it's interesting to me to see what came out of my head (apart from the teacup, as mentioned) and I'd like to try more of this (hopefully, without the anger prompt!). I'll post this in Leslie's '30-in-30 Challenge' and see if I can get another piece of artwork done before the challenge is over! 

Happy creating everyone!

Charcoal Pencil on Dark Grey Sennelier PastelCard, 13" x 19.5"

To be honest?! I was really cross about something and decided, rather than lose it, I'd do some artwork to get it out of my system so I made myself a lovely lime infusion, chose a large piece of Pastelcard and sketched out the image above - it worked! I felt better having drawn something.  

I do have a vase that shape so drew it from memory but the only element in the drawing that was 'live' was the teacup with my infusion. The rest was all out of my head.

49. Mini Master - Still Life, Pitcher and Fruit

Acrylic on Saunders CP watercolour paper, 3" x 2"

 

Here is another 'mini master'; this one is Still Life, Pitcher and Fruit by Paul Cezanne, painted in 1894.  I thoroughly enjoyed painting it and discovered quite a few things that I had missed just looking at the painting over the years, such as the difference in temperature in the colours in the foreground compared to the background and the way he unified all the warm and cool colours in the pitcher.  Great fun!  I hope you are all having a good weekend.
