Evening Rockpools by Trevor Osborne

Your portfolio is amazing Trevor, This one is really beautiful

Love the contrast between the deep green rocks and the pale water. The concentration you've got in the boys posture is amazing - another great picture Trevor.

Another fantastic painting Trevor.

The folk who commissioned this must have been very happy! It's a moment in time beautifully captured, Trevor.

Another lovely piece. Love the composition, colors and light.

This is a lovely picture of these two boys. I just don't know how you get your pastels so smooth. It's just hard to believe that it is a pastel at all.What paper do you use? I expect the person who commissioned this must be really pleased I know I would be.

Joy, I use Schminke Sansfix paper. http://www.greatart.co.uk/SCHMINCKESANSFIXPASTELPAPER-pastel-pads-paper-1.htm The person was very pleased with the commission. I use a combination of pastel pencils (carb othello by Stabilo and Unison pastels. I have several step by step illustrations on my website. http://trevorosborneartist.co.uk/ If there is anything else you would like to know, please just ask.

Thankyou for answering my questions so promptly. I to use both carbothello and unison materials for my pastels but have never used the paper mentioned above. Will certainly give it a try and most certainly look at your web site.Thanks again Joy.

Hi Trevor have now looked at your web site and you have some lovely pastel paintings as well as watercolours I didn't realise you did both. If I do get going with the paper you mentoned I will certainly let you know and who knows I may even have one good enough to put on the site.
