"Frozen Forest" 12x16 Pastel

Ok...so I've been gone a while, but now I'm back with big expectations for 2015! Right off the bat I'm starting off with three painting demonstrations back to back to back, so be sure to check my facebook page and my blog for more details! I'm currently working on a few new pastels and sharpening my oil painting skills so stay tuned!

I finished the year with a few demos and shows and not much time to paint, however here is a recent pastel I was able to finish. A beautiful snow scene from the Clyde Goldthwaite Trail in Danville, NH.
