This drawing is dedicated to a friend who always made me feel good about my pastel drawings, no matter how unrealistic or imperfect they were. Thank you Pauline!♥
This is my first pastel portrait drawing in years. It was a bit strange to work in pastel only again but I began to remember why I loved pastels so much to begin with. The drawing is actually based on a photo of myself, from Halloween last year where I was dressed up as a Autumn Fairy: [link] I wanted it to be a bit more spring like and to represent the new beginnings in my life that are happening. A reminder to hold on to my dreams and keep believing, always.
