When I opened my Pastel Journal email this morning, there was a little article by Richard McKinley about a technique he was using called "Sfumato," which apparently originated with Leonardo daVinci. I've gleaned that it refers to a blurred-edged, smoky kind of atmosphere in painting. No lines or hard edges. So I wanted to try it, just letting all the edges soften into each other. Kinda fun, I think, except that without meaning to, or trying to, my painting looks somewhat like the example. I wasn't copying, I promise.
