Good heavens! This guy looks grumpy!
One of my favorite places to go, LaBonte Creek is always beautiful. I'm thoroughly enjoying working in pastels again. I hope you're enjoying seeing them as much as I'm enjoying working in them! Thanks for looking.
As you can see, this was taken while still on my board. Just to give you an idea of what's up. More to come for sure. Thanks for looking!
This is the creek out back done in pastels. I haven't done pastels in years and it was pure joy! It occurred to me during a conversation with a friend that pastels just come natural to me where as pretty much every oil painting is not so natural. I love oils, but pastels just kind of roll off my fingertips it seems. So I think I could say pastels are my "native language". I'm going to continue with them as well as oils. The pastels will not be listed on ebay at this time. The oils will continue to be listed. The pastels are for sale however and if you're interested in a pastel just contact me at ginny.butcher@gmail.com. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the new paintings!
