This pastel painting of a red squirrel shows was one of the later development pieces I did from a more advanced Colin Bradley kit, which used 15 pastel pencils. It was also one I came back to several years later when I was trying to get back into doing art again after an enforced break due to work and other commitments. This is the first attempt and you can also find the Reworked version on this page, for comparison.
