This beautiful chicken is the subject of my latest video. Just click on the image to watch it on YouTube. I painted this months ago and did a time lapse video but the actual real time was so brief, 28 minutes, that I redid it. I've not narrated the video so that it is an ASMR (Autonomous sensory meridian response).
I'm not doing these videos, ASMR, exclusively. I'm trying to find my best ground. While I like not speaking very much or at all during a project, I recognize that some viewers want a description of what I'm doing.
This piece of Pan Pastel on black Stonehenge watercolor paper, 9 x 12 inches. If you hadn't noticed, I have completely abandoned sanded papers preferring the pastel and drawing papers, especially in black and tinted. Maybe it's because I began my pastel work on Canson MiTientes tinted papers over 30 years ago. I prefer the feel.
'tis the holiday season and much non art work needs to be done so I haven't been able to paint or draw except in my head. I'm hoping to create a piece this afternoon after the shopping and wrapping and vacuuming. There was much less dust before electronics.
Happy Holidays!
