February 2006
I did this one for a project on "light and shadow".
A journal of my art.
I have only recently started to use oil pastels. I use Caran d'Ache Neopastel oil pastels, but I've already got my eye on the Senneliers as well ;-) Freue mich auf Eure Kommentare, ganz gleich ob auf Deutsch oder Englisch :-)

You really achieved that soft, golden, backlit effect you were after with this one. Nice work!
Your swan is exquisite! Really beautiful piece.

Absolutely Beautiful
Hallo Birte - this is a beautiful painting. The light is perfect and the colours are really delightful.
Thanks everyone,
this painting is actually my favourite so far. I was so surprised when it was finished - it turned out much better than I had expected and I still can hardly believe that it was me who did it :-D
Hi Birte,
Thanks for your entry in my guestbook! Just browsing your site. I love your swan!
Keep up the great work.
Best wishes, Sandra
