Here is a pastel drawing of a summer sky that I saw last year ( I finished this a couple of days ago). I used the same pastels that candy gave us.

This is the piece I just finished. Meridith McNeal, “Magical Things from Quarantine Brooklyn Seltzer“, 2020, watercolor on paper, 12x12”

Very sweet. Your friend will have a lovely belated birthday present!
Kevin, I’ve had your sunset pastel On my mind. I have a challenge for you to try a pastel piece for the FOOD thread. I bet it would be fabulous!
