Little pond - Pastel



Little Pond
Soft Pastel
  Soft pastel on gray canson paper ..
I did this little painting in Raleigh,NC in year 2006 . My skills were not as good as now , there is few mistakes in this painting like the reflected light on the stones .... I did not correct any thing, I just wanted to look back and see how much I improved since then in depecting lights...

 ...In the back yard of my brother's house there is this Little water pond ....the gentle fall of the water between the stones attracted my emotions .....I tried to convey the peaceful and charming atmosphere where I use to sit to have my coffee every morning enchanted by the sound and the view of this little pond of  the running water with amazing reflection of light ....

Joseph the model - oil painting

Joseph the model, oil painting on canvas .
I just finished working on this painting ....Joseph is a great model ..It took several long hours and days  to achieve this painting ...I think it was the most long process that i followed to capture the emotion and the atmosphere ....the loneliness...the sitting still of the model against this calm blue background..When I started this painting, I was not sure how it is going to end up,.It is my first painting of a full figure with that size of canvas .
