Pastel pencils on velour,about my fourth or fifth one in a row done this way,time to take a break and do some pencil or charcoal work although I do like this medium alot.This is from the movie Dazed and Confused,the 1993 Universal Studios movie about high school life in 1976.One of Matthew McConaughey's first movies..."Alright alright alright." Of course there is the pot thing,not meant to offend,but a rather large part of the movie....Slater,Wooderson,Randall "Pink" Floyd and Don....

Oh boy! This brings back fond and fun memories! I keep telling Denny (my husband) that he has to watch this movie......it's a classic of teenage youth and really hits home to that era. 1976 was indeed a great year!! Wonderful memories and your art ROCKS!!david bass 19 Feb 2006

I like your style and subjects my friend,it,s always a treat. Now I seem to have deleted your comment of my last post by mistake, I'm sorry but thanks for it anyway.
