I have been delaying, and delaying, and delaying continuing to work on this, because Emeryis' shirt is supposed to be sort of a dark red and the closest chalk pastel I had was sort of a pale brick color. OR SO I THOUGHT. I eventually made it to Michael's yesterday afternoon, and ended up buying a whole box of chalk pastels (the small box, not the large one, which still cost rather more than I wanted it to) since they didn't sell them individually.
I start coloring this evening, and it is apparent pretty quickly that the color I am using would probably be properly described as rose. A bit of looking in my old boxes of chalk pastels reveals that I actually had this color before going shopping. Um . . . oops?
Well, it's not like I don't use chalk pastels.
So here will begin Adventures in Color Blending. There may be occasional updates.
