Blooming

 We were rained out of painting today at GG Park at the Windmill. Too bad, because the tulips won't be there for long. But one of our painters is a school art instructor and she has a massive super well equipped studio, so we painted still life there. I did two pastels, one from life and one from imagination. See if you can tell. 16x12" pastel on Buttercup PastelMat; 24x18" pastel on lavender charcoal paper.

Retirement Job?

Not My First Rodeo (Beach)
