My kitchen decorations are red, white and blue for the most part. We go to the Empty Bowl Project for the Food Pantry every year and I pick red, white and blue bowls. These are just a few that usually sit atop the microwave. They are too small for cereal or salad bowls. The bottom one is probably OK for ice cream!
I worked on another pastel the last couple of days, but it hasn't come to a finish. Irritating when an idea doesn't translate to paper. The paper wasn't great either, I was disappointed in that. I was using Uart 400 grain sanded paper. I used a bit of water for an underpainting and the paper warped a bit which makes scumbling with a big pastel harder as there are dips in the paper. Art Spectrum Colourfix paper and of course Ampersand Pastelbord do not warp. I have a few more pieces of the Uart, will have to remember not to wet it. I've only used it a couple of times and I don't remember if I wet it or not. Hmmm.

great blue colours :)
Jennifer Rose, thank you so much. I like blue as you can tell. Red is really the color that is fun to paint with though. Both are hard to photograph.
