I'm tryin' again

[Elizabeth Schott]

Jimmie, I am sending you some weights to put in your shoes, I am afraid you might float away after reading all this MUCH deserved praise!

My brain wants to do tight, and my heart wants loose. The rest of my body wants sleep.

See it works so great when you listen to all three!

I am very happy for you and all your hard work!

Personally I think (ahem) that pastels are underrated as a serious medium. They have a freshness, immediacy and sparkling color that oils sometimes cannot touch.

Bravo Sharon!

I want to start on the next one right away while I'm feelin' lucky. I don't mind if it does'nt come easy, as long as it comes. At least this time when I hit a problem area, I can try to recall how I solved something similar before. I won't find my groove for a while, I just don't get the time I need to put into them. I started a new drawing, and I'm taking it to work during free time, so I can continue the pastels at home.

Beth, you are too sweet!

I posted the finish under 'unveilings' There are no critiques there, but if something bugs anyone, feel free to mention it here or send me a PM.

Thanks again everyone!
