I've been trying to find the right medium to use in painting the beautiful sunsets we've been having lately. Here are just a few: First I tried acrylics...
It was a little too bright!
Next I tried acrylics with oil pastels...
Not bright enough...
Water colors were next. Here is just one of the many I painted:
Better, but I still had one more mediuam to try...pan pastels!
I love this one! I had forgotten how easy pastels are to use! I only wish I had a better color for the bottom...hmm I'm sure I'll be adding to my pan pastels sometime soon!
Have a wonderful weekend!

It is amazing how using different mediums can bring a completely different sunset. Love them all. HPPF :)
I received some pan pastels for Christmas. I love their blending qualities almost as much as I love watercolor.
Adore the sunsets - ours have been as colorful lately !

Water colors are very nice for sunsets! Alternately you could water down the acrylics and treat them like water colors as well. :)
