An Intimate Atelier

Ellen Eagle's art, her personality, and now her book, Pastel Artist Atelier, are a unified expression.  She creates intimate portraits in pastel, and her writing is a look into the private spaces of her studio and reveals her studio practice.  She has a soul of gentleness and introspection, and she perceives the subtleties of the visual world.

I will give you a finished report on the book at a later date.  For now, I am enjoying.

Pastel Painting Atelier.  Essential Lessons in Techniques, practices, and materials.

Making My New Palette

My old studio tray was 18" x 3' and the new "Pastel Crib" measures 2' x 4.'

Lots more space, and room to expand my palette to include the grays and also a nifty pencil box in the middle.

More photos soon!
