Black Star Canyon Oak

                    click to enlarge
This pastel painting is done on Wallis sanded paper with a water color underpainting.  This painting measures 18"x24" and is done with soft pastels over the under painting.  I feel like I have made a break through in the quality of light that I am capturing.  In addition I am happy with the values in my paintings at this time.  It seemed like I was stuck with these dark paintings.  It was a morning around 9am when I took the reference photos for this painting.
