Grazing in Kent - Pastel

I painted this pastel from a reference photograph I took many years ago, while spending a Easter break with my family on a lambing farm in Kent (England).


Grazing in Kent - Pastel (6" x 8") by Benoit Philippe

See below a few stages of this work.





Initial block-in done with hard pastel. I then used alcohol to create the underpainting.

I always enjoy seeing how a painting grows.
