Quick pastel sketch

Charcoal and colored chalk on canson 40 x 30 cm

It's been a while since I posted so I thought I might upload this quick sketch of the Gearagh as twilight approaches. Less is more I think for this type of description and it is so tempting to try to accurately portray what you think you can see, rather than the mystery offered by the fading light.

Thanks for looking :)

Some more life drawing at the fourth floor studios.

This time I am using red chalk. I have used red line

before but not frequently but when placed on tinted paper 

with white pastel highlights it can be very effective.
