Cairn Holy

Good evening, Since my last post I have started using another medium, soft pastels.

 After watching tutorials I decided to have a go at painting a picture (using these) taken in Scotland during a family vacation.

The area is near Carsluith and the picture is of Cairn Holy which is a series of two neolithic tombs. The legend is the Isle of Man was birthed from there.

My wife took pictures as I painted:

I used a mixture of Faber Castell and Mungyo Gallery pastel brands and Fabriano Tiziano paper which I feel gave a good result for a first attempt.

Thanks for stopping by, this weekend I am working on a new painting...... more to follow!
