Wow, Carole - that works so well - your method has given the whole painting a 3d effect!

Sounds a bit too technical for me Carole, but a good picture though!

Love how you have done this Carole.

Blackberry bushes in the woods near where I live. An experiment, using clear gesso on mdf board, a watercolour undercoat, another layer of clear gesso then soft pastels. Hard work pushing the pastels into the ridges. 10” x 12”.
