This is Nupastels and Rembrandts on Strathmore paper. I'm unhappy with it except for the rocks, which I went to great length on to get right, and I think I did a good job on that. The background is fallen and dead leaves and dirt, and I think I got it too dark for the rest of the picture. In working on that, I kept getting dust on the white robe of the statue, and dulling the whiteness, so I had to keep freshening it. I think that messed it up some. Anyway, I got tired of working on it, but I will be going back to freshen it up and lighten the background some.
This is the little Madonna statue that stands in front of the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Raymond, Mississippi. It is a favorite place of mine.
