Yes, I have done so many large pastels of the moon now, I wonder when I will go back to anything else in the sky.
As a young astronomer, I avoided the moon; now I find its surface so intriguing with so many features, its constantly dynamic array of details makes for a real test of an artists ultimate challenge.
Unfortunately, tonight we have clouds and constant rain in Portland; so we are missing the record predicted Perseids Meteors!
