Finally getting a decent hang of combining PanPastels and Gioconda pastel pencils on PastelMat (oh and a decent amount of black and white charcoal for highlighting in this piece). I love this stuff.
This is a pastel pencil drawing featuring a swallowtail butterfly scene I captured in a field in central North Carolina near Pilot Mountain.
It’s my second major attempt at PanPastels and Gioconda pastel pencils on PastelMat.
