Amazing Pastel Paintings & Drawings in DA!

I am beta-testing a new feature on DA. I don't know if any of you can view it or not, but try this link to see my new Portfolio that I made. It's a really cool feature I think is a great addition to DA!!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I noticed that pastel work is does not appear as frequently on DA as other mediums in traditional art. So, I decided to do a search for pastels artwork on DA and found some terrific work!! Pastels are not an easy medium to get to know and to use well. We need to give credit to the artists who choose to create beautiful artwork with hard & soft pastels.

Enjoy the eye candy!!

Please visit these artist's galleries and take a look see at the rest of their artwork!

I'm a colored pencil and pastel artist. I do mostly portraits (both human & animal) and inspirational paintings. I love detailed realistic paintings, which is why I work in colored pencils & pastels.

My home is blessed with five wonderful cats who have chosen to share my living space: Tooki, Treat, Tony, Mischief, and more recently Tooter (alias lovebug). They definitely keep me busy and well entertained.

I have been married since 2004 to a wonderful man who thoroughly supports my artistic obsession. He helps keep me straight. I give thanks to my Lord & Savior for blessing me with the artistic talent He has seen fit to give to me. I only hope I can honor Him with my use of it.

I was once trying to draw with pastels and was realy realy hard.

btw I'm also colored pencil user, it's cheap and relatively easier to use
