This was done using a suggested method of Rita Ria's,which is pastel pencil on soft velour paper..something I had never tried but I am well pleased with the results and will be doing more.This is George Harrison,a drawing of the back of his Dark horse solo album.I tried drawing it from the CD but it was just too small,luckily I found the original LP at Half Price records for a bargain.I still think the LP'S were nice because you got those big sleeves.Anyway...thanks Rita I love this medium....very effective.Pastel on Velour,16" x 24".

Beware of darkness.....for there're rays of sunlight that embrace us. We are gifts for creativity.. sometimes we can chang reality.....when no one else is there, accept the creator that depends on us. We are not perfect nor do we pretend to be .But some how we have faith when no one else does.....no one else.....no one else is there...but we in the shadows..with so much love. We love, we give, we share, we give our lives for those that don'...it is creativity that can change the program of reality. We are the silent ones...that meekly paint when we don't have any other power to make changes. We serve your food, or teach and love your child and pray that they don't miss the point of what life is about. Yet we don't have the ultimate answer .We just pray for guidence. We know that God ness has to be the answer. Again I thank you. I ask for you to search.... to see my work. PeaceTahirih Hall 31 Aug 2006
