Pastel "Sunflowers" in progress...

Today I have sat up a still life of sunflowers in a clear orange vase and a little tea pot sitting by its side. You can see how I have started to work. The blue tape holds my Canson Pastel paper to a board and you can see all my pastels , as well as pastel pencils on my drawing table. These days, due to problem knees and feet, I prefer to sit and work, but it means getting up frequently and putting my painting board on an upright easel to view the painting from a distance.

I should have this finished by tomorrow...maybe!
