St Patrick's #3

Well I guess this might be my thing for a while, until I can find other churches that are open long enough for me to stay for 4 1/2 hours ....
Although I also want to go to Grand Central.

I changed my paper for this one- the other 2, while successful, are on Strathmore grey-toned sketchbook paper. It's really not the best.

So I switched to Mi-Tientes.

And of course I was stupid and used THE WRONG SIDE and fought with it a lot.
Next week I'll try again and make sure to use the smooth side, which is much better.
I may try Artagain paper too.

The colors today were really interesting, the top arches were glowy purple from the lights, with warm space underneath. I almost didn't finish and rushed through the lower left side.

9x12 pastel

Here is the drawing, which took almost 2 hours-- I was slow today.
