Leprosy & Divorce

I went back to St Patrick's to paint.

I was present for 2 sermons- the English one, where they spoke a lot about leprosy but then- pleasantly surprising, talked about kindness and being kind to others who are different.

The Spanish mass also spoke about leprosy- and divorce, then leprosy, then marriage.  All the married couples stood up and basically renewed their marriage vows.  It was kind of sweet, actually.  
Much nicer than leprosy.

This painting also took about 4 hours.
I'm using my Strathmore grey-toned sketchpad, which honestly is not great paper and it isn't even pastel paper. Maybe I'll try Mi Tientes next time, it may be time to upgrade.

9x12 pastel

  1. I sure like this. I can only imagine how good it looks in person. Sketches always look better in person and I think this is very nice.
