I find if my art tends to lag a little, I come back to pastels. They're easy to manipulate, the only thing that gets really dirty is my hands and my desk, and according to my mother, it shows off the cat's fur the best. I suppose she's right, and many have mentioned how much they'd like to pet the cat's fur when I work with either oil or dry pastels, but I don' want to get stale with other mediums. Yet pastels are so fun to work with. As with paints, there's so much you can do with them. I'm currently still finding my niche in this vast open land called art, but pastels seem to be the medium of choice. I'll continue to practice with them, and hopefully find other ways of using them. Until then, I'll be adding my pastels to the shop.
Cheers!
