I am so happy I have stuck with it and learning how to use them. I&#8217;m trying different papers and love them. From my previous posts you may have read that I really struggled with the texture of the pencils on the textured paper. It made me feel the same how nails down a chalk board effects people.. Weird I know!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I am forcing myself to ignore it and this is gradually easing. This is the third attempt in pastels and as I am stubborn I decided to try the Pastlemat paper again. The first piece was also a Wolf (complete coincidence) and the paper freaked me out. This time though I am loving it! I am going to get more of the smoother paper I tried for my Robin and have a better comparison of what I prefer but so far I think I could happily use both now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"872\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-1-872x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-1-872x1024.jpg 872w, https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-1-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-1-768x902.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a couple of work in progress updates :).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-2-862x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-2-862x1024.jpg 862w, https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-2-253x300.jpg 253w, https:\/\/petportraitsandwildlifeart.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wolf-2-768x912.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This Wolf drawing will be up for sale and the finished drawing will be shared soon&#8230; possibly tomorrows post :).
