Last Saturday I did a painting demonstration at the Brandon Artists Guild in Brandon, Vermont in conjunction with our show " Art from Farm to Table ". There were about 20 attendees and lots of good questions! Here are some of the progress photos as I played with my pastels... Initial sketch in charcoal... I then created a value under painting in charcoal... I begin to add color... I took a vote as to whether or not I should dull down the background and I began to do that. And this is where I stopped the demonstration... I worked on the painting for a few days and I think I am finished! Thank you to all who came and the staff at the Brandon Artists Guild!
