Day 23 - Sunshine

"Sunshine"
6 x 6
oil pastel on paper
$45
available here

This cow was enjoying the afternoon sun, hence the "Sunshine" name.   I liked the shadows and letting the blue paper color show through the oil pastel in some places.

Painted on some small pieces I have left of light blue Sabretooth sanded pastel paper.  It's not my favorite sanded pastel paper, but it is good  for some simpler pieces.  The texture of the paper tends to make it harder to get detail. I prefer to use this paper without any underpainting.

Stay tuned for more posts as I catch up with updates on the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge!
