Playing with Pastels

I have never used 'chalky' pastels before but I was sorting out my desk drawers and came across a box. So I just had a little play with them and this little face appeared so I thought I would share it.


After all that smudging and re-applying I am surprised it ended up looking anything like a face. I used charcoal pencil to define the eye lids, brows and nostrils.

See you tomorrow for Paint Party Friday. x

  1. I think she is lovely...

    I did a face with acrylics on fabric today.. and the face is quite good but the idea of sewing it to a little pillow didn't turn out like I want it .. so I put it in an organizer .. maybe it will be good for something else....
    that's life ...
    but with each face we get better ....
