Another picture of Tristan, but this one has to be my favorite.

He better like it. =/


Pastels

Edit: He didn't like it, lmao. It's all good. Still adore him.

What is the most fantastic in this work is the variety of colours gained with the power of pastels. The portrait looks as if it was made from a rainbow. These colours are so opposite and suit each other at the same time. You'll surely love Tristan by =Dixzallicx. (Suggested by =iruka-loves-kakashi and Featured by `aeterne)

Aww... I want a really big set. I have a small one... the pastels are really small, they wouldn't last like... 3 large pictures for me.

I must say that Your use of colour and contrast in this picture is amazing, I love pastel pictures, they create such interesting effects and allows you to really play with colours. although I must admit I'm not that skilled with pastels myself. Good work,am adding this as a favorite ^^

I dunno, better resolution would serve the DD nomination.

Delicious colours and contrasts. The way you made it makes it look very alive, I would imagine it to have a very "tough" and "hard" look if it was black/white contrast, but with colours it looks more fleeting.

I guess the strokes would make the piece kinda busy, enhanced with all the colours and contrasts ofcourse, this goes for anywhere but the face, which is calm and focused.

Again, gotta love the colours, but I'm a little sceptical to composition and balance...and I think the colours blue/green/red in the upper left corner stands a little out. I don't think it makes that much of a difference, but maybe you could've put a little more of it, just a litte, somewhere else in the picture, I'm not sure...

Anyways, great to see something that isn't digital or photograph, fav! :+fav:
