Third stage of Angel's Grace painting.Still not finished but close. i cropped this image a little.
Oil pastel and cattle marker.

Second stage of this large painting.(See below for the beginning.) Back to big: back to color: back to semi-abstract... it feels good to be back! I missed oil pastels. Nothing like really getting into it with your fingers. Rubbing scrubbing and scrapping.Getting wild and getting dirty! Of course, i could stuff it up yet. Stay tuned.
