Description
This is a first for me.Going back and redoing and existing painting. Eep!
OK first of all for those who haven't this is the first attempt.
--->[link]
Based an image [link] the beautiful and talented was kind enough to let me paint.
So why do it again? A number of reasons.
First of all after having so much fun with the dark background in pastels, I thought I'd see what difference it made wiht oils. So I could tell what difference it made more easily, I used an image I'd done before to compare.
Secondly I allways thought it would look better round this way. I'm not sure if it really does, but there you go.

have fun

It's a lot more realistic this time around. And softer-looking. It's so beautiful.

the moral is paint you canvas brown first

Loved the slide show! I'm not fond of oils, too messy and too much prep for me, but I love the look!! Personally, though, I like the pastel better.

Pastels are so much easier to manage.
I get a lot of comments asking how I get results with such a messy medium on my pastels...I'm jsut like...dude, ever tired oils? they stick to you, they go everywhere, they like, smell funny...
Pastels are you friends...until you have to frame the bloody things of course
