explorations-new ways to glaze


18.5 x 20 on BFK
I have thought about this one for a long time. I have also been experimenting with a new way to glaze my pastels that can match the way I am trying to glaze with oils. I am somewhat "indelicate with color." (to say the least) When I want a pink/ orange glow I go full speed ahead...so much for neutrals, eh? This was painted on top of the sepia grisaille. I may go back into it after the fixative firmly dries...but I think I will let it sit till tonight.
The diva is the glow at the edge, where tree, water and background mass meet.....in case you can't tell.
