| Blowing in the Wind colored pencil on vellum 5 in x 7 in copyright Rose Welty |
It occurred to me the other day that since we've moved, we probably need to send out a change of address notice - especially if we want to see any Christmas cards. I thought about the change of season, the leaves falling, and decided to create this piece as a possible card to send out the change of address.
Just think, I could have my Christmas cards sent out in November! It would be a personal record :D.

How did you like working on the vellum surface?
I really like the vellum Katherine. There is texture enough to hold the pencil (maybe 5-7 layers), but I don't feel like I am fighting it as I do with other papers. I also like being able to work on the back side - makes it very easy to make the darks really dark. It is also very easy to erase on. I don't think erasing compromises the surface as much as other supports.
You can put a colored support behind it and change the whole look of a piece (or start off with the colored layer and then you don't have to start with blaring white, which is how I normally use it.)
This is gorgeous, Rose! I love the colors and composition.
Thanks Ann! This piece reminds me of you a bit. :D
