WOYWW birds have flown
... or they are about to. All packaged up just waiting to go in the mail box! (pics below)
So, look, new stuff on my work area ...
Yes, like many others, I have succumbed to the allure of Pan Pastels! (No Neet, I didn't need them, but I sure did WANT them!) I had some reservations, mainly to do with having some old boxes of artist's pastels which I haven't touched for years and the possibility of making chalk dust to breath was not appealing. Anyway, the chalk dust is minimal, and I used hair spray for fixative. And it's all good!
With the kit came a link to a tutorial for the canvas you can see. I couldn't wait to get started and am fairly pleased with the result.
As for those birds that have been hanging around for the last few weeks, here is how they ended up ...

Now I am having a very strange battle with blogger at the moment,
so I think I had better quit while I'm ahead :)
WOYWW comes to you, every Wednesday,
