From Joan Eardley's "Rough Sea". I have tried using pastels but cannot bear the texture and the sound as they are applied! So this is using Inktense sticks and then a wet paintbrush.

That’s interesting about the pastels Jane, the choice of media is a very personal one, and each different medium has its own character. Your version brings out the strong composition and the cool/warm colour combinations very well
