Pastel of foal

Thanks, Hanna, for the nice words. The oval was a mistake. I did this just as practice (trying to do one piece with pastels each day) and I did it on construction paper. It was right after there had been a discussion about colorfastness of pastels and papers, etc.. Well, I matted this in an oval mat and took it to a horse show where it sat in the direct sun for 4 hours, the pastels were colorfast (Unison) the paper however was not. But the effect is kind of nice. How did you do your heart shape?
