I loved doing this very loose 7 x 5" oil pastel on Pastelbord - maybe because her activity (or lack thereof) is one of my favorites. 😊 This little piece is very raw - I didn't smooth anything and it's very much like the quickly done original pencil drawing I did while watching a girl at a table with her friends. She was in her own world while the other girls chatted noisily. I used lipsticky Sennelier oil pastels - what a joy they are to work with! I guess I spent a teeny bit more time on her face and hair and allowed - particularly her left side - to just sort of 'happen'. If you spend even a small amount of time on my blog, you know that's my favorite way to work. Thanks so much for stopping by my studio!

Your work is incredible. You seem to have developed a mastery of the impressionist technique that I only wish I shared.
Wow Matt - if you didn't just make my day - no actually my week! Thanks so much!
