Cheap Soft Pastels, Fauvism and Beautiful Decay



Make and Play TV

Whatever you do, please, pretty please try to buy high quality soft pastels (artist grade). Trust me it is worth every penny, otherwise the experience can turn out into a dusty colorless mess… I was able to get more or less the look I wanted but these pastels were extremely chalky and the residue was way more than what remained bonded with the paper, in other words, the experience could have been a lot more fun if… (You get the idea)
I recommend Schmincke, Sennelier or Rembrandt 😉
For some reason when I thought of Fauvism, Havana came to mind, it must be the sometimes extreme contrast of grandeur and decay, the disorganized tidiness that irradiates in Havana city, the chaotic yet somehow harmonized array of colors all around the city. .. I hope you enjoy,much love!
