pastel

A cafe that makes only baked goods with berries, staffed only by bears. Mostly marker, with felt tip pen and a little finishing in Photoshop.

Purple moon

I painted this one for a friends little boy. It’s a mixed media, some acrylic, marker and pastel.

Pastel on drawing paper

Playing around with soft pastels on toned paper.

I've been working on various incarnations of this Millet. His original is in black crayon and is amazing.

I have a lot of work to do with these pastels, but they are fun!

Trying some pastels after the drawing prompt. I like them. They are portable and you can create some fun effects. Of course, everything still looks like a seascape to me.

Drawing prompt submission

Clouds - an ever changing landscape.

Thanks for missing me, Doodle Addict app. Pastels - as in pastel colors? Well...depends on how far we can bend that. Inspired by the hurricane that passed through this evening. The wind bent the largest trees to the ground. I'm happy to still have my roof.

Experimentation with pastel highlighters

Chest Burster from the movie "Alien". Graphite pencil and greyscale pastels on paper, (Size A4).

We are all under the same skies as we look up to the stars... (Products are sold on Etsy too @dericacreates)

Seven of Nine, from Star Trek Voyager. Graphite pencil, compressed charcoal and greyscale pastels on paper, (Size A3).

Mixed gouache, ink, pencils, oil pastel.

Soft pastels on pastel mat. I got a set of pastels as a birthday present, so I had to try it. It's quite different from working with ink. I like the colors but I am searching for a better way do do the eyes and the horns.

sketch practice... oil pastel on Canson paper format A3

Not really a good piece this one but I felt like putting this out there to release some suppressed emotions.

Flat Color commission :3 I've really enjoyed drawing this gal.~~

Finished this today in urban sketching. View from my backyard with Edinburgh tenements and a back corner of Fountainbridge library. Mixed media on A4 (pencil, watercolour pencil, brush pen, posca markers, white ink and conte pastel). I always end up mixing lots of media these days :O

Another with Danna as Klimt’s Nuda Veritas. This time with charcoal and conte on brown A3.
