President Reagan in pastel pencils

Another portrait of a President!   This is pastel pencil on Ampersand board, a sandy surface that works great if the sand is there but any flat spots from erasing are impossible to cover.  Had a couple places i had to use fixative on, a spray that makes the surface kind of tacky and will hold the pigment.  11x14.

Commission for a wedding gift

This is a commission for someone as a wedding gift to the couple.   Very large at 24x19 and took awhile to cover it all.  First time using Pan Pastels for the background, made it so much nicer than covering with tip of pencil.



Pepper

 Pepper , the sweetest dog.   Pastel pencil on Pastelmat 16x12.
