I found this artist named Val on Myspace. She lives in the UK and works as a decorator and painter. Her work is STUNNING!! I think she's using colored pencils and chalk pastels on different color papers, but she doesn't list her media on her site. Her plays with light and depth are amazing. Anyway, check it out!! (Remember none of these are photographs... they are all her original drawings.)
the next two are progress photos.....
finished product!
happy independence day! :)
