Description NuPastel, Unison, Rembrandt, Terry Ludwig soft pastels, General's white and black charcoal pencils on Art Spectrum Colourfix Suede (guess I haven't learned the first two times around )
Wanted to do another distraction while still procrastina working on the uber-time-consuming still life luthiennetinuvielle.deviantart… , so, here it is...
The Colourfix Suede pack happened to contain the toned blue sheet that was the exact shade I needed for the background, so, I gave it more more chance. And discovered that the CF Suede might work for some applications, like landscapes or stuff that doesn't require too many layers.
I did very little blending on this one, doing most of colour mixing and layering with the sticks themselves.

UPDATE: this one sold at my honey's fundraiser for our constituency yesterday. People liked it

OMG. It looks so realistic. I even thought it's a photo when I saw it first time.
Really Amazing

I adore the light detailing on the horse's coat, and also the colours you chose for the sea

Yup, pastel media and supports are pretty addictive, aren't they?

O.O How did you get such fine details with pastells? That is amazing! The way the horse interacts with the water is just perfect. I commend your valiant efforts at procrastinating. They're quite inspiring.

Thank you very much! <3 I just used the sharp corners and edges of the sticks, and way too much caution and care to my liking :-D weird, because a few months ago I was the one asking this very question when looking at the true masters' work... You made my week month! <3

The shading on the horse is so beautiful; it looks very realistic and shiny! I love the way the background is drawn as well. From my experience, water can be difficult, but I think you captured the different hues and the shapes and movement of the crashing waves perfectly. I can almost hear the sound of the waves and the horse's steps when I look at this drawing.
