I always like pastels. Playing in the dust is my thing!
Gene and I went to the paint night at 602 Brew Pub on Main. A few more painters showed up tonight. It is fun to see the other painters and what they are doing.
I took a box of 64 colors, Mungyo soft pastels and a small box of mixed softer pastels, Terry Ludwig and Sennelier for the dark colors. Could have used another dark purple, added that to the eyes when we got home. Didn't want to carry a big heavy container of pastels. I just set my easel on the table so I wouldn't take up floor space. Worked pretty well. I didn't need many colors for the photo of Chewie that I chose.
I didn't know what to paint (landscape? flowers? still life? )so I took the wiped off piece of Pastelbord 8 x 10 inches. After we got there I found a photo of Chewie on my phone. Pretty cute guy.
A few photos from the evening. Food was great, too.

I think it is so fun that the restaurant sponsors this! I'd be there in a flash. Chewie came out adorable...love his red bow tie.
Thanks, Joan. We could have a margarita or the free beer! Would be fun to paint with you.
Chewbacca is adorable!
