Landscape PastelsPastel Sketches & Demos
The Pastel Gallery
My pastels are quite different to my drawings in that I did/do not have years of experience and learned strategies with the medium.  Each time I pick up a pastel I feel like I am on a voyage of discovery, like I'm lost and I don't know what the outcome will be.  I think the result is a much more free emotive state during the process and a greater willingness to experiment and "make it up".
The pastels are deceptively representational in that they appear to be straight drawing of landscape or other subject matter, but it's only when one see's the large original (and they are large...) that the poetic license I take regarding colour and shape become obvious.
