Pastel of Elizabeth M., "Silken Whispers", completed June 2014. 2016 North Carolina Statewide Exhibition, Hickory Museum of Art, Award of Excellence, Elizabeth Mowry, Juror
Painted from two life sittings plus artist's reference photos to complete robe.
I used Canson "Touch" for this artwork, a sanded surface with enough tooth to apply layers without being too aggressive a grit. I also used some Rembrandts but mostly Sennelier on successive layers.
