Rum River, pastel, 16x20
Many of my pastel pieces begin as demos for my classes.  Since I've had a little break from teaching over the holidays, I was able to work on this one without needing to have a specific plan for it and simply let the painting go wherever it pleased. My only goal was to stop before I got too fussy with details.
