As time allows I'll post my current pastels on this page.

Pastel Materials: When working with pastels, I use various types of surfaces such as Canson universal sketchbook paper, Canson Mi-Teintes paper, Wallis Sanded Pastel Papers and Ampersand pastelbord, mostly white. The soft pastels I use are from Sennelier, Unison, and Diane Townsend. I use very little fixative if any on my pastel paintings, preferring to roll the finished pastel with a hard rubber brayer and newsprint to take up any excess pastel.

 

"Spring, Dark to Light 4", is a framed large format pastel on white Canson pastel paper with an approximate image size of 17½" x 23".
