Description
This one started mostly as an experiment as i wanted to test the endurance of canson mi teintes (which is only 160gms/m2) under a layer of a polymer film. What you see here is the first stage of it, so far i have used just my color pencils.What will follow though is a different story...a layer of polymer film, waiting for this to dry, a layer of pan pastels to fog the existing shapes, and then i am gonna work my crispy details with color pencils again. (at least this is what i have in mind doing, i cant know for sure because on the process the strangest ideas pop out in my head apparently
I guess i am just curious to see how this will develop...

usually i do not like rainbowish-looking paintings, because too "candy". But this here is a great result!

It is great to see your stunning artwork again. I thought you'd disappeared with being so quiet for so long

what i really feel is that i have entirely lost the privilege of calling anyone a "friend" anymore here, since friends dont disappear like i do Steve, you made a good point with your comment.
Let me tell you a little secret though. Summers in Greece feel like this www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJFjY0… and from my personal experience i can tell you, its very hard to do any kind of art under 40C. Its the time of the year here that makes you wanna lose yourself in crystal clear blue waters and leave aside the brushes for a bit, some rest didnt harm anyone after all, yes?
I hope you are doing well over there my dear, i am in the lazy relaxing mood over here, today finally we have only 31C so its bearable. Kinda...

Well it is very good to hear from you even if it does appear you're melting Yeh I'm not the slightest bit jealous of you slipping in to crystal clear blue water to cool off....honest I'm not, no seriously!! The only thing that could really tip me over the edge more is a photo of you doing that!!
Is there an envy icon??
I have visited a few of the Greek Islands so I can attest that it gets a little warm during the summer We've been having a mini heat wave(by mini heat wave in the UK it usually means 1 hour of sunshine on one day at the end of June!!) But this time it's been several weeks of beautiful sunny days! Hotter than Hawaii claim the press! Though probably not hotter than Greece
I'm very fortunate that the room I paint in faces north so even on hot days it's fairly cool so I can paint in comfort without having to strip off clothing(not sure anyone would want to see that!!
) The only downside is having to go to work as it eats in to the creative process plus it's always gorgeous sunshine when working and overcast on days off!!
Anyhow, still not the slightest bit jealous about you splashing about in crystal clear blue water
