Sweet Glass Pastel

A couple of the items on the Hunt 105 list are glass and sweet.  I chose the candy dish.  It was a very quick sketch and looks better in the small version.  Evil grin.

Pastel on wiped off UArt paper, about 6 x 8 inches. 
Number 4 glass - candy dish

One of my favorite artists, Richard McKinley, had this article on Streamline Publishing.  I may have linked to it before, but I like Richard McKinley's attitude and thoughts about painting.  Being comfortable is one of the best pieces of advice! 

Making a Painting vs. a Picture - Richard McKinley

The article continues with Michael Chesley Johnson's, "From How to Why to Yes."  I have followed Michael for years, too.

Your painting is making me crave a piece of chocolate. Nicely done.

I liked the advice from Michael...especially "Its only a piece of paper."

Joan, thanks so much. I'm a chocolate lover for sure.
