A Night To Remember

A Night To Remember 19"x26" pastel on Canson


I began a pastel last night, and it never ceases to amaze me what a few strokes of color will create. Evening light is needed to finish this, but it doesn't need much more. I want to put in a few more areas of red to indicate the shirt on the floor. However, the shoes are the story here, and boy do they have stories to tell.

Robin I love this one, it draws me into the feeling of the painting. We have all had one of these nights. Beautiful!

I appreciate that Desiree. I need to update it, as I have added a bit more to it. Need to wait until tomorrow to see if I have pushed it too far.
Enjoyed this one a bunch, and see a series of my footwear coming up.

You've really captured the silver of the shoes, Robin. Lovely romantic picture and great lines in those shoes.
