Original artwork description:

This pastel painting of a robin shows the cheeky nature of this delightful bird as it watches what is going on. Ivan's wife took the original photograph and Ivan has given it a 3d effect, highlighting the contrast between the bright colours of the robin and the stark grey/brown of the branches. The dappling of the sunlight adds an extra dimension.
"Cheeky chappy" is completed using soft pastels and pastel pencils on Artspectrum colourfix paper. The sharpened pencils create the detail and the background is blended using polystyrene sticks to give the three dimensional effect to the completed painting.

Materials used:

Soft pastels and pastel pencils on Artspectrum colourfix paper.
