I Spy. Painted in pastels on velour paper. I just love painting tigers. Such powerful, magnificent animals. Masters in their territory!
 I loved this picture of Ophelia by Cuong Nguyen, (which may be viewed in the Artists & Illustrators Magazine, August 2013 Edition.) and I attempted to paint it in pastels using the same coarse
pastel paper that he suggested.
I found it so difficult to use that I used Clare Fontaine pastel mat instead, and I am very pleased with the result.
