Here are a few new ones. Two are fairly quick pastels and one is a work in progress oil painting. The oil painting is done with a grey scale under painting (grisaille) and glazed over. Something I've been experimenting with a long time and finally kinda getting what those great (according to me) painters were doing. This is still new to me in some ways and I hope I can do it justice.

New life pastels

some new pastels from life drawing. I was trying to utilize the mid values of the paper. I need to incorporate some of this looseness and freshness in my paintings...
