Earlier I said I would update my progress on the fifty oils. A few weeks ago I passed the halfway point. Here are a few of the paintings (with pastels on the walls and easel in the background) ready to be photographed.  Today I am starting number twenty-nine, so I am feeling good about making my goal!  Try not to laugh at my tiny studio.  Okay, laugh if you must.  Fine. 

I’ve been making some canvas panels and later this week I will go through the process a bit.  They make a great surface, especially for me as a pastellist.  Oils seem to behave in an almost pastel-like fashion on them.
