Why do I like pastel and pencils as medium?

I enjoy working with pastel and pencils for their immediacy and intimacy. These materials allow for precise control, delicate layering, and a direct connection between hand and surface. Whether through subtle graphite tones or carefully built colors, they invite a slower, more attentive way of working and a close exploration of detail and expression.
