Apples, anyone?

28Oct09

Edited in response to comments: Thanks everyone, for the encouragement. Just to clarify, they are photos of my painting. Pastels on paper. My first experiment with soft pastels (these are hard soft pastels though) which I bought by mistake during my hunt for good quality oil pastels. Since they cost a good amount of money [...]
