Re: "The Calling" - in pastels

Sorry friends if you have enjoyed my pastels short adventure - it's discontinued.
It's happened for second time now...
I'm being amazed at very fresh stage, when I'm enjoying them like never before, then my exitement goes down, once I'm more aware of its dusty nature, application with sponges, fragile varnishing... etc.
I can not use pan pastels on its own from start to finish, because I can not apply pan pastels for detailed work...
I didn't care about it at first, but the more I'm drawing the less I like it...
So to enjoy pan pastels, I need to keep set of pastel pencils as well...
I think I can compare my feeling to falling in love
When you're first dating you're sky high, but after many dates you not that high anymore
While enjoying working with pastels, because of its similarity to oils, the more I've been drawing, the more craving for oils...
I have been comparing those two every time and then, to the point that I decided to move to oils instead...
I am very sorry if I am disappointing you (Laurene?).
I'll start again this project in oils soon...
