Painting of Green Heron in breeding plumage using pastels
The rain and cold has kept me indoors lately and what better time than to finish the bird painting I had started a few weeks ago. With only just the branch left to do, I locked myself in the studio, put on some music (great motivator!) and grabbed my pastels. I may touch up the branch some more before framing the artwork but this little guy is pretty much "hot off the easel"...

From what I can see of the pixelated image, it looks like one of your better pieces. I would love to see the actual artwork. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThanks John! But what do you mean by pixelated image? I can see it fine here. Are you trying to enlarge it to view more detail?
ReplyDeletebeautiful piece Colette, nice to know the bad weather was good for something! The image looks fine to me, not pixelated.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say, Colette!!! I absolutely LOVE this one! The branch is SO realistic and dead on. I work with pastels and could never get the fine detail you put into a painting!! Perfect piece.
ReplyDeleteColette, I wish I was more knowledable about technical things, but for some reason all of the images of this particular pastel have had the appearance of being a very low dpi. All of your other works look great. I guess the problem is something at my end of the line.
ReplyDeleteThx Tracy, Hilda and John! I alway appreciate your comments and love to visit your bolgs as well!
ReplyDeleteJohn, I'll check the res on those images and compare to my other posts.
