This is one of the many cardinals living around our back yard.

I know George Carlson you has done serigraphs that have more than 200 seperate layers of pastels to complete a picture. Amazing. I love the fall and snowy weather with all of the beautiful wildlife.

Dick Bonham Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Hi Lee, Thank you for the comment. I didn't like the way the cardinal was drawn so I redrew it. I think it looks better. Re-check the previous post. I like to work with pastel because I am a terrible painter. I draw pretty well so I find pastel fits into my artistic style. Thanks again, Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
