Unexpected quick sketch. I planed to paint another view, but suddenly these boats appeared. While sailors were making their preparations to launch the boats, I tried to catch this bright colourful and plastic spots of sails.
I am delighted with the combination of soft pastel and special abrasive paper pastelmat, on which I can create spots, like with oil and at the same time use it as a graphic material and complement the work with expressive line .
Painted from nature.
I don't use a fixative because pastel loses color saturation with it. This artrwork was drawn on abrasive pastelmat cardboard from clairefontane. Also, the pastel does not fade in sunlight, is not detected by temperature changes, does not crack or fade. The drawing requires registration under glass and mat.
-Painted with quality professional soft pastels. Soft pastel is a pure pigment, it remains bright and does not foam color over the time.
-The artwork requires registration in a frame with glass and mat.
-The painting is original, authentic, signed back, front, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
