Stacked Pastel Sketch

I really like cups and pottery.  Stack of something was on the list for the Hunt and I thought of cups.  Especially to sketch them with pastels.

 


Scavenger Hunt from Life 11

Number 7, stack of something - favorite cups.  I wasn't sure the blue one would sit on top but it is still there.    Pastels on the same old paper.  You can see some of the wiped off shadows.  May be time for new paper.

Love the vibrant reds and blue. I'm waiting for that top one to fall!

The cups are fun. I like the color choice. You always do well with reds!

How did you manage to get the cups stacked, they look like they are going to fall over any second, kinda neat!

Hi Gene, it was funny. I carried the cups into my studio and sat them on the shelf and they just stayed in the stack so I thought, why not? They stayed until I took them down. I should take a photo.

Joan, thanks. I thought it might fall as well but the bottom mug was big enough for support I guess. I do love red and blue.

Bag Blog, the cups were fun. I love those cups, too. I don't use them as much as I have some glass, double layer, thermos type cups for coffee. Stays hot a bit longer.
