It's only January, but my blue soft pastel stock is starting to run out...
It is quite curious… it seems that the pastel sets of blue ranges are the ones that my clients like the most.
Yesterday I realized that it's time to redo almost all of them...

In my personal quest looking for soft pastel art and pastel artists I found the work of an Australian painter, which captivated me inmediately… I feel really blessed to get in contact to such wonderful people though this passion for pastel and art that we all share!

Autumn is a very special season of the year in so many countries, full of colors and changes. The possibilities to play with those fall colors are amazing!

People are afraid to break soft pastels. It is painfull to see your work smashed into little pieces, but in some way, it also has a certain beauty…
