Pastel on recycled smooth watercolour paper primed with black gesso & crushed pumice - 24 x 32cm Another lovely morning for a paint out with the Hastings Valley Fine Art group at Rocks Ferry - Wauchope, on the Hastings River. The rough texture of the pumice really rips the pastels up, although it is good for a quick painting without too much fiddling! !http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/w550/Terrimad/Rocks20Ferry20collage_zpsyfhzjzto.jpg! Collage - the view, half way there, finished!

Waterlilies by Claude Monet is a beautiful image that captures the peace and tranquility of a summer day on his pond in Giverny. This painting features the lilies in bloom, with their leaves and flowers floating on the water's surface. The reflection of the lilies in the water below creates a sense of depth and adds to the serenity of the scene.

A portrait of a female plein air artist. Plein air or en plein air simply means painting outside and not in a studio. In this picture we see a woman seated outside with a sketch pad on her lap busily drawing, dressed in Victorian garb wearing a wide brimmed hat to keep the sun off of her face.

Pastel on black primed matboard - 26 x 36cm Featured in - Realist Landscape, Seascape, Streetscape group - 22/10/14 The surface of the matboard offcut was primed with a mixture of black gesso & some pumice stone that I found on the beach - ground & sifted to be quite fine. It has still made a very rough texture surface to paint on.! We had a lovely paint out at a friend's 100 acre property & this veiw was looking up one of the tracks along the ridge near her house. Blocked in with some hard pastels first (because of the rough texture of the board), then dappled with some softer pastels. I will either refine this painting a bit more, or use it as a reference for a studio painting.
