Daisy Basket - Step 4
I had a chance to work on the daisy basket while hubby entertained the puppy this afternoon.
I’ve tried to tone down that mutant daisy in the back, and added some blues from the Mount Vision 510-513 series to the middle grouping of daisies. They are the yummiest blues! I also added a lighter blue-green to the back & foreground on the right, and a few more purples to the petals.
The daisies look a little bright on my monitor, but the basket is pretty close to what I see on the paper. I won’t do much more to the basket, but I’ll probably lighten the background a little more. A little more work on the daisies, and this one will be finished.
Until next time!

Lovely blog and this pastel is beautiful. I haven’t done any pastel work for about a year and I miss it!
Thank you for signing up to my new directory of artists who blog, Art Blogs 4 U - .
If you could add a link to it on this blog it would help but do not worry if you can’t.
Hi Lesly. I think the best thing about pastels is the ability to leave an unfinished piece indefinately and return to finish it at a much later date.
Your link *should* be the first one listed under More Art Blogs. The nice folks at BlogExplosion.com tell me the sidebar skews to the bottom of the screen in *some* versions of IE.
I’m on a Mac, using Firefox & can’t see it.
I hope I can fix the problem. It’s a Wordpress template, and I will probably have to find another.
