I'm really loving chalk pastel as a medium. The effect it gives is just awesome. I really love making artworks with a sort of mysterious/whimsical feel to them, and it helps me do that.Βsemi hard chalk pastel onΒ

Hello! You commented this piece under the monthly critique thread for February.
I really like this from the subject, colors, and mood of the piece. The trees are just fantastic and a bit haunting. This reminds me of driving through the low country near the marshes at night. I enjoy the contrast between the straighter strokes for the branches and the soft billowing clouds. Something that may improve the overall drawing would be adjusting the clouds to something less structured and more organic. Not so much with the bottom clouds, but with the left corner. The contrast is visually pleasing, but the shape looks a bit awkward for a cloud.

Thank you very much for your response! I agree with what you said about the clouds. I didn't notice that before, but now looking at it I see exactly what you mean. I will keep that in mind the next time I attempt this kind of drawing.
