Me and my pastels, I have done these over the last couple of days

I have been working on a few portraits but this is my work in progress

Can you guess who it is?

also did a pastel drawing of a couple of kingfishers

I have also been doing a few portraits of friends too and its helping my confidence to do them. I will share if they let me, but a couple are surprises so I can't ask yet

Beautiful work there Gbear, very impressive. Looking forward to seeing the final portrait, it's looking great so far.

This one is my latest, bridges across the Tyne

Wow, I like that  is that in watercolor? Beautiful view 

your picture is fantastic. You are very talented. x

GBear your pictures are very good. Your technique is improving in leaps and bounds. How nice that you have the confidence to do portraits now. I hope you’re doing ok x

Thank you Fairycake, portrait drawing or even painting was one thing that i was scared of doing, lack of confidence I suppose. But I wanted to over come it, so i did a portrait for a couple friends then i ve started this one and I just try to iron out my technique, i go back to my art class tomorrow, which I am nervous about but everything has been put in place for safety and covid protection. It be nice to get back in to it although I have done a fair amount during the lockdown art wise having that professional help makes a big difference confidence wise. 

Thank you Fairycake and Gbear, you're very kind. Yes it is in watercolour. I've been working in recent months on making my watercolours less pale and more colourful.

G bear, your portrait is very good. I can attempt scenes, but never portraits!

I received a picture the other day of my youngest grand daughter wearing her favourite cardigan. The sleeves were about 3 inches above her wrists!!  I'm knitting her a bigger one. She chose the colours, and I had instructions to put hearts on as well as the dolls!!
