This is gorgeous, Margaret. Do you consider this "loose", "tight" or in between?

Hi Julie, for me this is quite tight! I'm usually after a more flowing painterly effect with pastels.
I'm glad I left it relatively unfinished though

Margaret,

This is so beautiful, accomplished, and penetrating! I love the limited palette and blue paper.

Garth
