The is my painting in response to Carol Marines' "The Broken Egg Challenge" on 

the Daily Paintworks.  Since I just got back from a pastel workshop with Bonnie Paruch at The Clearing Folk Art School  in Door County, Wisconsin and still had all my pastels within easy reach, I thought I would use them, instead of my oils.  I love my new appetizer plates so chose a color that I thought would go well with the colors of an egg.

The inspiration for this painting is from a photograph of a statue in Florence, Italy taken by Lee A Brown and offered for the April challenge on his website called "A Day Not Wasted".  I am hoping that even though I just posted, that this got in just under the wire! My artist friend Judy and her husband just got back from Arizona.  Judy is a pastel and watercolor artist. So when she is in town I try to do at least one pastel painting a week. We will be joining Bonnie Paruch for a "Flowers and Gardens of Door County" workshop in August at The Clearing Folk School. It is a great week of all day painting, and eating fabulous home cooked meals with 18 painters,18 woodworkers, and 18 poets!  We have a party on Friday night to show and tell all our works accomplished for that week.
