Cheyenne Farmer's Market

Thursday, March 19th, 2009
This was a study of the Farmer's market in Cheyenne. It's painted on a green Ambersand Pastelbord with a heavy underpainting of pastels brushed in with water. I should have given it a little more time to dry but was anxious to get in with the "sticks".
I've attached a few of the steps for you to view....sorry I didn't get more along the way.

5" x 7"
Pastel on Ambersand Pastelbord
Blocked in some major shapes of the market.

Laid in a heavy application of warm and cool pastels and using a stiff brush mixed with a little water I brushed the pastel into the tooth of the board. This is a much heavier application than I generally would start with.
