I have started a big project of trying to make 1000 pastel sketches. It might not be a very realistic number, but I still want to give it a go and see how far I get with it.
I thought this would be fun in several ways: I get to use up my pastels, and therefore I clear the space to buy new ones that I want to try out; I use up my paper, particularly sketch paper, which I've accumulated over the years; and lastly I improve my art style (hopefully!) in a medium that I love.
Pastels in particular, land themselves to sketching and expressiveness, and they are the perfect blend medium between drawing and painting.
So far I've only reached 27 sketches, but I only started roughly a month ago, so actually it's good progress. I've also included some old sketches and I am posting them right here.
Thanks for stopping by!
