I’ve never really loved working with hard pastels: they always take me longer than other mediums to complete an illustration!
This autumn, I decided to slow down and spend some time experimenting with them in my drawings.

I didn’t follow any specific technique, and there isn’t a real story connecting the sketches... but they all share the same mood: fantasy and weirdness!
I had fun!
It was definitely outside my comfort zone, but slowing down really helped me explore colour combinations and shading techniques I’d never try in a client project.

Thank you for watching!
