Pastel pencils on A4 160 gsm Canson Mi-Teintes Pearl Grey paper

Photostudy to test out the Mi-Teintes paper and how pastels blend on it. Reference: https://pixabay.com/pl/photos/zimorodek-ptak-siedzi-zwierz%C4%99-7434901/

I didn't enjoy working on the textured side, it would be better for a quick landscape with regular pastels. Apparently the smooth back not only is great for coloured pencils, but also works well with pastels, so I will test that out soon.

Life would be great if it wasn't about constant crisis management and damage control.
