Pastel Paper

Opt for a Light Grey Pastelmat sheet approximately the size of A4 (or US Letter). This paper boasts a textured surface akin to fine sandpaper, perfect for pastel pencil work. If unavailable, consider using UART 800 Grade Paper as a viable alternative.

Outline Drawing

I provide you with an outline drawing for each portrait, eliminating the need for freehand drawing. Use a graphite transfer sheet like tracedown to transfer the outline onto your paper, especially if it's light grey. This ensures the lines are visible.
