Beautiful work. I especially like the second one (not to put down the standing one), it has a feel of freshness and openess, but doesn't have the look of being unfinished or a sketch. It looks like everything was done just right. I apologize if it's been mentioned before, you name the paper and was wondering which brands of pastel you use. I've only been using pastels for a year, and haven't sampled much material. I'm currently using Wallis for bigger work, and Canson for smaller work. The pastels I use are Nupastels, Rembrandt, and Schmincke. Thanks.
