I have done this image before in acrylics, at least a version of it.
My source photo was a composit I made in Sketch Club on my IPad. I love that app. I overlap my images in many layers to get some wonderful shapes.
The hard part is transposing them to my pastel paper.
In this case, my paper is Sennelier paper which was a bright rust color.
I also splashed the surface with water to get the mottled texture effect I have used in the past. A new practice for me, and one I love obviously. :))
The image is unframed and measures 19.6" x 25.6"
