Taking a Fresh Look


View of Mt. Diablo 
Pastels 14”x 23” 
$330

A couple of years ago I put this drawing away when I finished it, because it didn't turn out how I had intended at the time. I was a bit frustrated and didn't want to look at it. Fast forward to yesterday when I opened up a portfolio to find this piece, and now I like it.  Every art piece develops into its own entity. We as artists have ideas of how we want an art piece to go, and our skills guide the results. Unpredictable things happen when exploring art. Sometimes it takes stepping away from a work to notice and appreciate those unpredictable things. Artists, take a fresh look at your art as often as possible!
