Different Strokes Portrait Challenge

This was a great idea set up by Karen Jurick on her blog. We each sent a snapshot of ourselves to her, then she in turn sent an anonymous photo to each artist involved in the challenge. We had 3 weeks to paint it and send it in. I of course left mine till the day before they were due in, and also have a nasty cold, but I did it. Poor lady though, whoever she is, will likely not even know herself. This was in pastel pencils and is around 8" x 8".
I can highly recommend this blogsite, it's informative and great fun, especially if you go in such challenges.
Enjoy.

Rock Pool SOLD

I feel very ashamed that I have not added a thing to my blog for so long, so this is an old one from my cobwebbed archives.. I did while I lived on Maui. It is a pastel on sanded paper and sold at a recent sale I had out of my studio.
