Pastel artwork: amber and blue pebbles on sand
Pastel drawing: volume modelled by blending, a grainy edge to every patch, natural muted colour.
Smooth stones are laid out on a pale surface, honey and cherry amber mixed with blue pebbles. Each stone has a gloss to it and casts a soft shadow. The ground is sandy grey and grainy.
