Rocks along the Goulburn

This is just stunning work it looks like a photo. x

Stunning work Lynda.

Mmmm! I seem to recognise this ! Well done Lynda …a beautiful part of the river and a very beautiful pastel!

Is access to this part of the river on private property? I am searching for different spots along the river so i can take photos.

beautiful! i like your colours very much

Is it pastel? Unbelievable, so much life like, how could achieve that water fowing effect? Amazing and amusing at the same time! You should title it as WOW painting!!! I have yet to come across such a masterpiece in pastel…

:-) Thanks for sharing those great secrets!

Another great piece Lynda!!! So much detail and clarity. Color choices are stunning!!! Do you pastel pencils for detailing? I use Derwent pastel pencils but would like to find a better grade and a little smaller for better detailing. Just wondered if you used them, what brand you use? Love this amazing piece!!!

we are spoilt 2 wonderful pastel paintings loaded for us to devour….this one is so full of movement..that river is moving fast and has such a lovely flow to it…:-) love the depth to it and the colours are gorgeous…another winner Lynda!

I agree Lynda, the Derwent are a little hard to work with mainly because of the size and texture. I bought the Prismacolor Pencils and may incorporate them into the sketch I’m currently working on. I bought mine online at the Utrecht website. The prices there are alot better. it will be the first time I’ve used them so not really sure what I’m doing..lol!! Hopefully I can master them quickly!!!

I always love how you do the water! No one else does it like you do!
PERFECTLY!
Chookas! X♥X

_{& I’m envious that MrsWillow has one of your artworks ….... <( ....... lol}

You done an amazing job with the water. Even before I read your comment about this pastel painting I could see that the water was flowing very quickly. Did you do this plain air? I have a feeling you did. Wonderful job!!! Outstanding. Cheers Esther

Your rendition of fast flowing water is spot on—your pastels are in a class of their own!

fabulous, wonderful, unbelievable – you clever girl, you never fail to get it just right!!!

Another amazing pastel Lynda…a Blurb book of these would be wonderful..

As always Lynda your painting is superb, I’m not suprised you sold it !!
you say the water was a challenge, i think you won !!
the whole composition is brought to life by the movement in the river.

Fast moving water without much rapids or white water can really present a challenges for most of us. Obviously in not slowing you down. Excellent work, beautiful and skillfully done.

something is wrong with redbubble those two day,
i feel not seen and i don’t see all what people add!
this piece is amazing,
i could say itsa photo, the lighting is so real, the colore tones are really perfect, i couldn’t use pastel well foe those landscapes;,
i should try, as soon as i buy pastel papers!!!
keep up the good work! !

The colors are so lovely, wonderful work.

Recent title correction…”Lynda R. Rocks Along the Goulburn”

Effect is achievable by a lot of squiggles and smudges, trial and error, and sometimes stamping and shouting helps!!!! Swaying around in front of the easel to nice music is also quite effective!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
I knew I was doing something wrong! lol
yes my ears were burning! lol but I yelled at Mick for it so it’s all good! lol
OK and am envious of you too! lol
Chookas! X♥X
_{mmmmm lemonaide snakes mmmmmmm}

and have you found the new TimTams?
“Tim Tam Crush – Mint Chip”
I’m in H E A V E N !!!!
_{hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm}

Go to Blurb.com…it’s easy…you do it all on line by dragging your images in to the templates of your choice and they do the rest for you, printing binding etc…then you can offer it for sale through the bookstore there or just do it for yourself, family and friends….I wish RB would offer this service…

the water motion is fantastic Lynda

Gosh Lynda. I bet if I touched it I would get my finger wet!. The water is fantabulous. It is just a mystery to me how you do this with pastels. Wish you were here to teach me. Hop on a plane and come on to Atlanta!

Hi Lynda (but there is only one unique Lynda with a Y)!!! you are going to get confused with all us ‘i’ ones :-D ….yes have got one painting nearly ready for loading…an acrylic on canvas this time will try load today ..have a good one.

Beautiful work Madame ! lovely flowing fast water captured impecably, the usual beautiful tones & stunning highlights,Superb !!!!! by the way do you have a shirt or face like this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Lynda, you’ve sure made this locale look attractive and inviting. The hues in the river are appealing. Warm wishes from Ron.
