My ArtVenture: Pastel painting „Cara“
Hello my dear Steemians and Art Fans,
Today I wanted to share my last work when I thought to go back to the roots. Actually my first experience with Soft pastel was in August 2017 that time when I saw such stick I thought how it is possible to get a beautiful and very colourful painting especially the fine details.
Of course with time I learnt that the fine details would require soft pastel pencils but the difference from normal color pencils the pastel one has more pigments that is why they are such bright and also you can blend them easily.
Working with pastel I noticed that it is very good for portrait because of ability to blend them smoothly some of portraits with pastel difficult to recognize if this is done with Oils painting or Pastel. That is something that I really love and also would like to reach.
This time I have chosen this Artist who I like very much this is Cara Delevingne, she has very interesting facial feature and that is why I have chosen her. But in general I love human beauty and that is something I want to capture.

Thank you @axeman for your nice comment, I thought you will love it, you have such great taste for beauty of women :)
Великолепный портрет! Ты очень талантлива, Стеф!
Очень интересно было наблюдать как на листе появлялись человеческие черты под рукой талантливого живописца!
Творческих тебе успехов и вдохновения на последующие творения!
Спасибо за прекрасные слова. Я очень люблю делать портреты, хотя иногда это очень трудно приходиться. Но конечный результат всегда доставлает удовольствие :)
У тебя очень красиво получается. Ты рисуешь с душой и техники интересные, я например не чувствую свет и тень, и не могу передать черты лица. Вероятнее это тоже талант, видеть детали и уметь их писать в своей картине!
Amazing work.
Thank you :)
The resemblance is very noticeable. Great portrait, Stef! I really enjoyed some of the works from Cara, I especially loved Valerian, an amazing sci-fi movie by Luc Besson.
Agree, I love Valerian very much and she is indeed very talented Artist. Thanky ou for your nice words.

Thank you Stef for the invitation, I don't know if I'll be able to participate this week because I ran out of sheets of watercolor paper, I ordered online but the mail is so delayed these days in quarantine that I don't know when I'll get them.
