Lisbon - View from the Tagus River

Lisboa

I finished this pastel yesterday. It was painted from a photo I took while crossing the Tagus River on the ferry. I had taken the train from Albufeira to Lisbon. The ticket included the ferry because there was no railroad bridge across the river.

The pastel is 12" X 18" on Wallis sanded paper. I used Pan Pastels, Nu-Pastels,  Rembrandt, and Unison pastels plus Derwent pastel pencils.
