Robyn has some sensational photos of the Australian landscape. Thanks Robyn for sharing them.
My learning journey: to plan more before just jumping in. So truer a word has never been spoken as 'we learn by our mistakes'. I just read Richard McKinley's recent post http://pastelpointersblog.artistsnetwork.com/ about fixing the darks, just the darks. This is why I have more layers than I wished for because I fixed after laying in the darks and some lights...well the lights took off and darkened and needed to be subdued and re-lightened and so I ended up with more layers than I hoped but a lesson was learnt.
Your Pastels are so good Pip! This one has a lovely 'pre raphelite' feel.
