New One, finished

I think I'm going to call this one Runaway, in honor of the Bonnie Raitt cover of the 1961 Del Shannon tune, because listening to it helped me to figure out how to make the sheets pop away from the background.

I'm also entering this for this week's IF topic: fleeting.

Laundry Day

For IF's Sail:

This piece is pastel on paper. I found working in pastel on such a tiny figure a bit tricky. It makes me have new respect for the artists who can make pastel look like paint, namely, the intrepid Rosalba Carriera and Mary Cassatt. I'll probably try this again as a big sky painting.
