Oil pastel on paper

19.5 x 28.5 inches

Unmounted

Well, I've finally gotten this piece out of the way.

Interestingly, this would be the first artwork I've finished since I started this blog.

I don't know about you, but I think there's a marked improvement in this, as compared to "Painting Helena". By not obsessing too much on method, I was able to concentrate more on "getting that feel onto the paper".

Hell, I don't even know how I got to this point from the initial sketch. Painting is funny that way.
