Description This is a pastel sketch I did at work during our downtime. I wrote the poem first, then had this image in my head.BaleThe patter of rain built to a crescendo.The weather report called for arksand animals in pairs.Nature tattooed the windows in liquidand umbrellas were raised in toast.
Ramon Valdez, Lawrence Member Since September 2010 Artist Statement I only started doing watercolors this year, and I absolutely love it. The peace of getting lost in the work, being able to physically produce something hours later is amazing. I'm learning every day, learning patience and new techniques along the way. I mostly do portraits with an occasional 'concept' painting thrown in or a pastel drawing.
