@CathHodsman He had a phenomenal skill with white in particular, so luminous, yet soft and never feeling exadurated.
#SoftPastels are composed of pigment, water and a smaller amount of binder. They create intense colour. Because they can't be mixed on a palette many artists use an extensive range of colours.

I can't do a feature on #birds without mentioning John J. Audubon’s 'Birds of America'. Around 1820, Audubon declared his intention to paint every bird in North America.
This is 'Mocking Bird' (plate 21)

A Lincolnshire Stream (1882) by Joseph Crawhall (1861-1913), one of the #Glasgow boys, and another of my favourites. He painted many birds in his career. Technically this one is a landscape #painting, but it's the birds that bring the magic to the composition.
Good evening everyone,

Happy Friday!
If you are starting to think about #Valentine's day #gifts, perhaps you could consider a lasting floral gift in the form of an original artwork. I have lots of flower and botanical works available to you...

Good morning world,
2 days left of the old year. 2021 has been a mixed bag, but it was great to open my online #art shop this year. I hope I am able to continue my journey for many years, learning each day.
Thanks for your support this year.
