Pastel Sketch of the Sunrise over Gassendi

            As soon as I saw the photo Steve Knight posted earlier of the sun rising over lunar crater Gassendi, I just knew I had to drop everything and create a pastel sketch from it, and he kindly gave me permission to do so.  I created it on black paper with Stabilo CarbOthello pastel pencils, primarily in white but I used the tiniest bit of black here and there. This is way more minimal than my usual sketching style which is why I wanted to do :-)
