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

Down to the Rocks
I don't do rocks very often and often find them tricky
to do, but this was fun and I love the way it turned out.
The hardest part was thinking of a punchy title for it, which I failed at. This was from a photograph taken by someone other than me, and is a small waterfall in Loch Lomond, Scotland.
