People ask what are soft pastels? Are they chalk?
Soft pastels are pure, vibrant pigment held together with a bit of binder.
They are actually purer than oil paint, or so I’ve been told.
Every day, I believe, we are given a glimpse of wonder. And all we have to do is:
Look, wonder and be.
In summer, leaf shadows often amble on the ground, while sunlight mingles among the shadows and dances on the ground and illuminates parts of tree trunks.
Late afternoon light can spread a magic carpet; it can change the colour of a bush from green to a dazzling purple.
And each season offers up its beauty and wonder.
Notice how shadows fall when driving down a highway. On each side of a big highway, the tree shadows fall in different directions.
Once in the woods in spring, under a weak sun with snow all around, I happened upon a Mourning Cloak butterfly. I didn't know what was. With the help of Google, I found it. The adults have a 3 to 3.5 inch wing span and overwinter under tree bark. I was captivated by it, but felt sad because I thought it would die. I mean, how could it live in the cold without nectar? Back to Google. That’s when I found out, it mostly feeds on tree sap, and rotting fruit and carrion, and in a pinch nectar. Tree sap; you don't say. :)
