Day 318 of my 366 daily art project! A lot more are on the way! Please read all about my project and charity below and in my journal.

Landscapes in soft pastels are too fun. :D

>>Created with soft pastels and charcoal on 2.5x3.5 blue strathmore 500 series paper. About 1 hour.

:bulletred: See all my ACEO's in my gallery here: [link]





-----------------

♥ For every day of 2012, I will be drawing one ACEO sketch card. Every single one will be for sale - ALL proceeds to be donated to charity at the end of 2012.

My charity of choice is a local foundation called Alternatives to Violence, who is currently raising money to build a safehouse. This safehouse will provide a secure shelter to men, women and children who have recently escaped physical and sexual abuse.

With the safehouse, 312 individuals every year will receive crisis intervention, counseling, safety planning, advocacy and shelter.

Together, through art, we can help make a difference.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
If you love this piece and the safehouse project, you can see the card to purchase at Etsy for $8 + shipping: [link]

now, isnt that cool or what,
i like how those coarse white brush strokes cuts into the soft purple background.Its like really illuminating-as if its full moon, but its just a crescent.
Now, i take those, as clouds and not the snow covered and illuminated mountains[if they are ] as bob ross wud do,, :D

and i see the cluld moving into opposite direction (illusion created by the illuminace ) so i think therz some mysterious power source in the centre, (below the moon),whic is pushing clouds away with its force.

May be some invisible alien ship's plasma boosters :jarkorig: :alientwo:
