WARNING! I suck at properly commenting people! XD
So if you receive a random, one worded comment, or one with a bunch of grammer/spelling mistakes because it was written in the middle of the night, don't be alarmed!

This is so helpful-thanks for posting it! I don't use gloves-sounds helpful. What kind do you use? Are they special pastel gloves?

I use disposable gloves.. like the surgicial kind... no special gloves :D
My hands are very sensitive, and they also help protect them.

wow... I had no idea you could get so much detail in a pastel piece... I always end up with a smeary mess.

Interesting to see how it's done, especially since I do so little experimenting in different traditional art media myself. It's really impressive.
