Another pastel sketch. It was very cloudy but I managed to get a few looks at the moon for this sketch. I'm really starting to love these pastels, but I think I'll need some bigger paper to get some nice detail in my sketches.
Done with the Meade AZ 70mm

Very nice capture through the clouds. What are the dimensions of your paper?

Thank you. The paper is 9"x12", and the moon is the size of a DVD.

TenthEnemy,
Try keeping those pastel pencils very sharp. If you are still having trouble getting the detail you want, going larger will do it IMHO.

Hey, that's a fine sketch!
The curtain of clouds in front of the moon globe adds a tremendous depth to the sketch.
Well done!

TE,
An excellent observation of the Moon through the clouds. Using pastels gives the scene a nice glow. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
