Still trying to get to grips with the pastels, learnt a no no, do not try to rub out pastels lol it just erodes the paper. I managed to disguise my faux pas, know not to do that again!

Well Iv'e used loads on this, pastels, glitter, acrylics and felt pen.

Reason for the glitter is after I fixed the pastels for the background I just wasn't happy with the sky so decided to throw a load of glitter on it. I personally think it works better but I'm sure some will disagree.

Inspiration is for a set of xmas cards I am trying to put together. I had a few photos of polar bears and seals for inspiration but the penguins and landscape are from my imagination.
