This is my first attempt at pastel work. I bought some oil pastels last year then realised I should have got the chalky ones as they seem to be easier to work with. So I recently bought some and tried them out today. This only took me an hour and a half, which is extremely quick for me, lol! Any advice on using them and what you think would really be appreciated. John Hyde from Wild Things Photography kindly supplied the reference for this!Thank you, Joanne:-)
