Madeline Blue Cloth

Madeline Blue Cloth
14" x 11"
Carbon Pencil and Blue Pastel on Paper

My original plan for this drawing was to have green cloth. I realized, when I went to apply the color, that I didn't have any green other than neon or forest camouflage. I think that dark blue was a much better fit for this piece.


Materials used: Wolff's Carbon Pencil, Rembrandt Soft Pastel, Arches 300lbs Watercolor Paper (Hot Pressed).

Commission NFS


Here is another recent commission completed recently. I had to re-frame a couple of times. Twice to rework the drawing, and the third time to clean the dust off of the inside of the glass.
