Early
spring these beautiful flowering trees can be seen. This 8x8 painting is
painted with pastel on paper, prepared with watery pastel and then
added marks of Sennelier's sticks onto it.
It's outcome dreams the viewer away through the softness of the watery
pastel underground which is shining through the final pastel marks.
