Another bluebell wood this time in pastel.  Hahnemuhle ingres 100gsm paper with Royal Talen Rembrandt pastels and Conte. Approx 29cm x22cm  I have already come to the conclusion that I need a somewhat more robust surface as the paper quickly became clogged and made it difficult to build up the layers.  Also difficulty achieving 'bluebell' colours as I have a limited amount of pastels and none in a blue violet range so had to try to blend thus adding to the problem.  I also struggled with the shadows and thinking perhaps I need to place them at a much earlier stage.  All thoughts, observations and comments appreciated, Thank you.
