Cast Shadow
12x12, soft pastel
Painting realism can look like tedious work...but, I find it mesmerizing. Focusing on the details to express a realistic image sends me into "the zone". On this piece I loved expressing the texture of the cast iron and subtle reflections on the side of it from the rug it sits on and the challenge of depicting the shadow it cast. I loved painting the textures in the rug with all its imperfections and I'm reminded of how beautiful we all are, imperfections and all.
