Thank you. Pastel pencils! Although, I used Rembrandt soft pastels to make the pebbles, I used pencils for the shadows. It’s really a very fun medium to use!

Fantastic Lori! Love it.
I love your tiger! I too am enjoying drawing wild animals at the moment with prismacolor pencils. You have really captured this majestic tiger’s inquisitive look. Well done.
Thank you! Your comment means a lot.
Thank you. I really love Prismacolor colored pencils. I think they are my favorite.

Beautiful tiger and fur details are well rendered.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment.
This is amazing! I would never have guessed you did this with pastels. 
Thank you. Aren’t pastels great! Didn’t like them when I first started with them, but was seeing great artwork online that were pastels. So I kept at it. I love them now. I still have a long way to go to be where the artists are that do the artwork I saw, but even if I never get there, I am having fun trying!
This painting is incredible. I love the detailing in the painting.

Lori,
This is so nice! Great job! Your combo of mediums couldn’t be better. When I first look at this, I thought it was a photo. You captured the softness of the fur so well. Patience is showing through. Well done!
