A Peaceful Explosion

Peace is breaking out of war's shell, but will it escape the stray bullets for long? Charcoal and white pastel on red sugarpaper, a cheap and useful artists pastel paper measuring 11x8inches.

This is really great, Steph, I love it!! It's a pity that people can only see this small version, why don't you put a link to the contest page in the subscription, where it is much larger? The colours are so marvellous! You've got my vote. :)

Wow, that's good Steph! I especially like the volcanic atmosphere, and the steam, is a really neat effect! -The Joe

I have never heard of this sugar paper, but it sure added pizzaz to this beautiful charcoal work. I love the symbol of this dove. Nicely done.
