New Pastel Painting – Butterfly

Hi Everyone

Here is another pastel painting of a Butterfly. Unfortunately when I finish them it is dark and the photo doesn’t come out very good but at least it will give you an idea of how the painting looks.
Painted with Rembrandt soft pastels on Cason Archival Pastel Paper.

Comments welcome 🙂

I’m Back!!!!!……. New Painting and Update on wrist

Hi Everyone (if anyone is still following me ?)

It feels like I haven’t painted for years. A little over a week ago I finally got released from my full arm
splint after 7 weeks. I still have a below the elbow splint but the freedom of being able to drive again
and dress myself properly is great.
There is still to much pain to be able to digitally paint and I may I may not be able to for quite some time.
My wrist was damaged quite badly and I may not get full usage back again.

But there is a positive believe it or not. I went back to my roots when I got my arm splint removed and
tried my hand at pastels again which is where I first started. With my splint on nice and tight I can paint
without the need to move my wrist and without the need to apply too much pressure.

Below is the end result of my first painting. Please feel free to comment.
