Painting:a Glorious time

Everywhere I sought rest, and in only one place, found him in a corner with a book.

(Umberto Eco, "the name of the rose").

The picture is made with pastels on the watercolor sketch on textured paper. Halftone colors change depending on lighting. Feature of pastels is that the ink mass is the individual pigment particles, reflected from which the light scatters in different directions, giving a special colorful layer luchistoi, velvety, specific "pastel" softness. If you draw a picture in a baguette with a Mat - it will simulate a real bookshelf with live fish in the Bank.
