From January 15, 2012Moonscape, a soft pastel on 9x12 black Colourfix Suede
1. I sketched the moon, the focal tree, and the terrain in with a white Conte pencil.
2. This photo represents two layers of PanPastels applied primarily with the palette-knife-type Sofft tools. Using a limited palette that included white, yellow, turquoise, violet, tints of magenta and ultramarine, and a shade of violet, coupled with the white Conte pencil, vine charcoal, and a little bit of black Sharpie, I worked out today's simplified abstract composition.
3. I dabbled more blue into the sky using scumbline on the left half and light sketching between the tree branches. I finished the piece with a few touches of ultra light blues and purples in the snow and dark purples at the contour interfaces.
