Painting by Margaret Bradburn on Fisher 400 sanded paper

Margaret has kindly let me share her painting with you. It was when I saw this that I thought I should try the paper.  The layering in the trees is really lovely as is the softness of the sky.  The painting was in a frame so the edges are a little dark. However, you get the picture!  Margaret says she doesn’t do underpaintings, just works directly on the paper. It would be easy on this paper as it accepts the pastel readily. But I was also able to layer and produce “chunks” of color in the grasses in my picture, which I liked.  Thanks to Margaret for sharing this and her enthusiasm for this surface with us.
