Yesterday’s folly.
Assorted pastels on Canson
12″ x 15 7/8″
Background Ambience: You might want to listen to these “sunset” songs if you are thinking about creating a painting about sunsets yourself. Here is my songset about “sunsets” or “skies” as songs with “sunset” in the title is hard to find, especially songs that are free too!

ECO Art of the Carolinas

ECO ART OF THE CAROLINAS THEME born out of inspiration…..
surfaced with my belief in preserving the beauty and health of the environment- the land. My appreciation of the natural beauty in nature was born in my youth when I admired the mists rising off of the Appalachians and the Blue Ridge and grew from my travels. I am drawn to paint various landscapes, marshscapes, seascapes often of wild lands and often including water imagery. My primary subject matter interest began with the ecosystems that represent change between the land and sea, including marsh environments and mangrove forests. I hope via my website to promote awareness of the dynamics that thrive in these fragile ecosystems.
About a year ago I posted “daily paintings”- which were small exercises such as the one above; however, life got in the way and I had to take on multiple roles and fit alot more into my day and this ritual about ended for me. I hope to return to the page more these days.

I’m calling this done.
Last image taken as far I can go with it, I believe. Do you think it is done and how about the name “Pink Light”? 9 x 12 image. Sennelier pastels. I dry mounted my pastel paper onto foam core to create a transportable work surface and hinged to that a reverse mat cut from the same material (foam core). Even if you chose to use fixative on the last layer or during the process, a few flakes will fall with pastels, especially with the softer brands. I chose to stop using fixative after the first 2 layers, that way the final layers are not dulled down.

Concerning my recent post of ”Pink Light,” (a class demo) I have taken it a step further. We consider it to be almost there, but not quite there yet. I returned to the page this weekend after browsing thru a beautiful magazine about Kiawah I received in the mail. It was a weekend filled with the Julia & Julia movie, Chinese and Sushi, a yard sale, and the return of the little art ritual below.
Here it is:
Image is 9″x12″ Pink Light- in progress
This image is not yet finished and needs a better title, perhaps?
