I been using colored pencils for a decade, but want to try pastel pencils because it appears much quicker to do a larger drawing compared to colored pencil.
How much faster is Pastel Pencils colored to Colored Pencil work ?

Beautiful. Owls and hummers are my favs. Do u have pan pastels? Have u Considered using them for background and bottom layer of owl? Was your pastelmat size 30x40? Tfs

[@Leontinevanvliet]

I don't own any pan pastels! I do think they would work great as a base for this drawing, but I must say I prefer the control I have with the pencils:)

[@Leontinevanvliet]

OH and yes, it's 30x40cm !:)
