We Have A Pastel Community!! Thank you!!

After basic drawing, my first use of color was with pastels...and I could not imagine anything more wonderful until I started with oils, and never looked back for nearly 20 years. My daughter's cancer care and Covid brought me back to pastels and I am hooked once again. The luscious feel, the immediacy, the fine nuances that can be achieved have me enjoying them more than ever before., for studies and final works alike. Now if only I could have the time to use ALL the mediums to the extent I would want - but there are only 24 hours in a day with no guarantees of a tomorrow, so those "tough choices" will be there always.
