It's been a while since I posted anything on this blog, but I have done two or three lately, and I will get round to posting them one of these days. This one is obviously of bluebirds on top of a nest box, but although we do have them nesting here in a box on our property, I didn't actually take this photograph. It's 11 x 14 Pastel on La Carte card.
In March 2008 I made the suprising discovery that I had a little artistic talent which had been lying dormant all my life. I started with simple still life subjects but as time went on I progressed to more complex subjects. The only medium I paint in is pastels which I love. They do tend to be messy but I love the immediacy of the work, involving no mixing with turps or water, just pure pigment directly applied and mixed right there on the paper. Carol Conrad
