A few weeks ago I was planning on painting a landscape with pastel. I couldn't decide between using a red or a blue surface. So I did two small versions using each surface. The next day I got sidetracked and never did the larger one. Any preferences?
Pastel painting on (red) primed mat-board, 3 x 4"

I have to say I love the top one Johanne, the tones are crisper (for me) and that peep of red is delicious. I like them both actually, but that one is my favorite. Love seeing your thoughts as you post, good job! Rae

I like the red base.
I usually love red, Johanne, but I think the blue really enhances the sky and clouds. A little hard to tell, though, with such small pictures.
I like the red base because of the reflections in the water.
