2-27-12---Pastels-wm

These are my pastels from my first year in college.
...when I had starry eyed dreams about being able to make a living as an artist...
I cleaned them up a few years ago for a commissioned photograph, but I'm thinking they need to be roughed up again with some actual use.

Talking about the shot itself...I'm not entire sure what my opinion is of the rug.
On one hand I love the stark contrast...the light vs dark; texture vs smooth; vertical vs horizontal.
But on the other hand I feel it's almost too much.
What do you think?

  2. I like the rug - I was wondering what you used when I looked at the shot. My son loves using pastels!

  4. I always wanted to be able to create with pastels too, but I didn't get the art genes in my family.
