I’ve got a decent selection of CaranD’ache soft pastels which I rather like using, not tried hard pastels apart from Conte sticks in sanguin, which is such a great colour!
This is developing nicely, I like the solid mass of the pier, but I’d perhaps tone the grass down a touch, it’s a bit too green maybe!

Thanks for all the comments, thoughts and tips! Linda I was planing to use smooth side but got sidetracked and ending up on the rough side! Robert I am finding I need to be quite firm when applying the pastel to fi,ll the tooth!Still I am only in the learning process and mistakes are part of that! Yes Alan that green is bright but it is a moss which was a vibrant green however I will be tying to tone it down. Not done anymore this evening because of poor light!
