Plein Air Pastel
A plein air pastel painted on Terracotta Colourfix Primer. Looking West up the barranco El Chorrillo, Trevelez. A large white rock in the centre of the painting, glistens in the sunshine and I hear the laughing call of the green woodpecker somewhere above me.
My Sketching Kit consists of a folding metal pallette, Winsor and Newton watercolour and gouache paints in tubes, an assortment of pastels, graphite sticks and putty rubber, a water pot and large bottle of water for drinking and painting, a ring-bound watercolour sketchbook, a toilet roll, a large sun hat and a small rucsac to pack them all in. I also take a small digital camera and a folding stool.
