Oh, Here's one that I didn't burn... A sexy, very pretty blonde girl with lovely breasts!!

I know that most people will think it is a pretty corny painting but, who gives a damn?! I enjoyed doing it, and I like it!

And, I have to admit, it was done mostly in Rembrandts...

So why am I getting hot under the collar about Rembrandts? Because I have completely run out of my Schmingke SOFT pastels, I can't afford to order any more over the internet, at the moment - and I couldn't have done this...

without them! ...Reason being that the above painting uses a lot of acrylic modelling paste, mixed with sand, in order to get the textures for the grass and the rocks. If you try to use anything other than a really soft pastel for this, when you try to cover up the sanded modelling paste, most of the pastel ends up as dust on the floor. And, if you are not careful, you can wear your fingers down to the bone!!
