Longwood Garden's Orchids by Tatiana Myers. Work in Progress.

14 x 11" on Museum Panel.

This is a preparation stages for another floral Oil Pastel. I'm not going to describe all details, but to keep it simple all you can see right now will not be visible, when my work will be over... It is only mean to be an underpainting.
I'm working on another ampersand museum sanded panel with watercolor pencils and wash. The reason of turning pencils into wash - Oil Pastel goes much better over watercolor and doesn't have tendency to crumble as much, what is essential for successful painting. At the last photo you see finished underpainting and it is ready for Oil Pastels... any time now!
