The Fountain

 
The Fountain | Pastel | 8x6

It was chilly today so we dressed in our snow boots to stand on the concrete patio. We painted and chatted all the while the Fountain played it’s delightful tune. 

Painting Notes:  I’m sold on UArt’s newest dark pastel paper. I’ve been a die-hard Wallis Warm Belgian Mist Paper fan for all my years at pastel and still possess 12x18 sheets of what I believe is the last batch that will be sold. It seems to my touch that the 500 Dark is a touch smoother than the 500 regular cream paper but I can’t be sure. I just know that every painting I do on the dark ends with me liking the substrate a bit more.
