Fall Meadow

Oil pastel on smooth bristol board 4" x 4"

This was a quick study done in the fall of 2009. I had been playing around with smearing / blending the oil pastel on the smooth hard paper and found that I liked the effect. I decided to try it out with a photo that I had recently taken while out driving. I used part of the subject matter in the photo and made up the rest - including some of the wild colors. I never intended to actually do anything with this other than experiment but in re-discovering this little painting decided that it was kind of interesting.  Thought I would put it up just to show some variety of stuff that I have been working on.
