10. Thank you so much! 😍. Actually in a few years, after I've gotten more practice in,

I was thinking I might try to sell my work. I need to get better first though, I’m not there yet. But maybe in a few years I will be.

16. You're welcome!

Did you take classes on how to do this? And how did it take you to reach this level of success?

[LiberalLoner]

18. Wow, thanks! Mostly I watched YouTube videos, to be honest. Tons of demonstrations out there.

Also artists network tv.

I’ve been playing around with soft pastels about seven or eight years now. I can see where I got better with each year. Im hoping in another few years I might be ready to try selling some of my paintings.

21. Would you call this style impressionistic?

That's what it reminds me of but I don't know the formal definitions of what makes something impressionistic or not?

[LiberalLoner]

26. Thank you! 😍. I think it's kind of impressionistic!

25. It's beautiful!

Your pastels are all so good! I love them. You capture nature so well. I like the frothiness of the grass and the contrast with the trees. The picture looks like a magical meadow during a full moon. Just enough light to soften everything. I can almost hear the calling of the frogs and the chirping of crickets.

This is a wonderful depiction of the subtleties of night colors. Your textures are wonderful too in this moonscape. And it works just as well as a dayscape!
