I love Kauai. It's probably my favorite place in the world. If money and my calling were no object, that's where I'd live. This is from a picture I took once. On top of the mountains they've got all this swamp, and boardwalks all the way through it. It's beautiful as heck. I tried it with pastels.

It came out somewhat more impressionist than I intended (abstract? modern? Let it not be said that I know anything about classical art styles). There was so much detail, so many colors, that I just had no idea what to do with it all. So hooray for experimentation!
The boardwalk is so realistic! I feel like I could walk right out over the swamp. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a noble calling and a beautiful drawing. I am even more jealous that I did not win. %^)
