Promenade au vent du large

Such a delight and a powerful sensation to walk along the seaside and feel the fresh iodized wind from the ocean whipping your face!

The photograph I used as a reference for this pastel was taken during one of these walks. I wish I would have worked on a bigger format as the details were not so easy to render and the shot was not of a very good quality, which did not improve the situation.

But all in all, after fixing some minor problems and strengthening the colours, I quite like the final result. Thanks in advance for looking.

***************************** Soft pastels on pastel card measuring approx. 20x25cm.
