My new toy came through the post today, a box of Caran d’Ache Neo-Pastel colours. For a long time now I’ve been following the blog of USA based artist Aletha Kuschan and I’ve been so impressed by her work, particularly her lovely vibrant pastel drawings. She kindly told me what she used for them. So I had to have some. I did a very quick scribble onto Khadi handmade paper. I love the colours, the juicy intensity and the feel of the pastel as it glides over the surface. But I’m not keen on the way it moved over the very thick paper. Back to the drawing board (hahaha)
