Echinacea

Today I decided to take a little break from homework and paint something simple. Except it turned into something much more detailed than I anticipated :)
This painting is a Pastel measuring 12X9" on Colorfix Brown pastel paper. I didnt use any underpainting on this one and just used the tone of the paper to set my darks. When using a darker tone paper its almost like its doing part of the work for you, all you have to do is respond to it with the appropriate values and it fills in the blanks :)
