The Godfather

'Still I Rise'- A Portrait of Maya Angelou

Tried Derwent Pastel Pencils today. Pastel pencils are far more easier than bar pastels for these provide much control and neatness. The paper used is Brustro 160 gsm A5 pastel paper. This paper is not smooth but is slightly dotted in texture which I think, is not very appealing.

This is a pastel portrait of Maya Angelou, the great American writer. Her poem 'Still I Rise' is one of my favorites!

A Little Sin!

How I fancy being Satan’s chick!

I am dead certain we will click

I’ll be a beat in his hollow heart

And the muse of his demonic art 

Lucifer, my darling, count me in!

For what’s life minus a little sin?

An old one, penned a few years back 

Wings

'Far and wide my wings I spread

Cutting the untamed winds I fly 

Calm is my mind, high is my head, 

This whole universe is my sky'

I did this work using masking tape (for this indicative bird)

Done in watercolor and Pitt pens on 5*7" watercolor paper.

A Motherless Child

Stars gleam together

Moon wanders alone

A motherless child
