This is a pastel painting in progresa of my nephew, Dean, in my family's swimming pool. It's roughly 2/3 completed. I purposely chose a large scale and close cropping to make Dean seem large. I'm also making the sparkling water also look somewhat celestial - like stars. It almost makes Dean seem like a little giant who's playing out in space.
The next photo shows the painting a couple of sessions later. As of today, I'm done a bit more work on it. I've used almost $50 in pthalo blue pastel sticks for the water area alone!
