Pastels

My first animal portraits were done in pastels. At that time I mainly used the large soft pastels and simple pastel papers such as Canson or Ingres. Later on I discovered pastel pencils.

These are still soft 'chalks' but are encased in wood so that they can be sharpened to allow for a lot more detail.

I also started experimenting with the wide variety of pastel surfaces such as glasspaper and sandpaper, Art Spectrum and Pastelmat.

All of these allow me to apply many layers of colour onto the paper so that my pictures have a greater depth to them.
