During my recent workshop in New Braunfels, Texas, I showed my students how to create multiple landscapes from one photo reference... Pastels are perfect for these quick studies that sometimes turn into masterpieces! I sometimes don't know what I have until I step back 20 feet... I was working on "Indian Camp Melody" as a demo and kind of struggling with it, until one of my students said... Jen, step back here (12 feet away) and look at it. I stepped back and it came alive! Always remember to step away from your work and also to take a break from it... Come back in a couple hours... Your muse may just put the finishing touches on it while you're away!
