Day 8 - Sunlit Afternoon

"Sunlit Afternoon"

I took many pictures of the light hitting this old home along Main Street though Windsor, Vermont.  It was across the street from the Constitution House along Route 12.  I started another piece tonight of the same house from a different angle, and will finish it on Day 9!

I tried out Golden's Pastel Ground on some gold metallic rice paper matboard.  The metallic quality of the matboard was lost under the ground, but I liked the texture overall.  

Stay tuned for this piece's companion tomorrow!  Thanks for reading,
Bethany
