How to draw with soft pastels on a black sheet of paper?

_{Ilojleen Art at Facebook

_{THE OTHER TUTORIALS}

You can find more tutorials in my gallery, here: [link]

DeviantART should allow typing more characters in the title
Also, I'm not sure if the full title I've written in the beginning of this description doesn't sound odd. Sorry, I'm such a complainer

Anyway, when I posted my first drawings done in this style, they received a lot of positive feedback. One day I was asked to do a tutorial which would explain how I draw such drawings. Therefore I decided to write it, it is simple as that
I'm aware that the drawing "Breathe" that I presented in this tutorial isn't as impressive and amazing as I promised that every artwork drawn in this style might be - but it's just a simple and quickly done portrait which was drawn to show you how I draw like that step by step.

Last but not least, it's dedicated to *Sekhmets-child and ~Little-Miss-Living for their help with my imperfect English Thank you again!

Hope you like it and find it helpful. Good luck with drawing!

Thank you very much for sending me a link to this. It's a great tutorial. very useful. i'll just try out oil pastels instead of soft pastels. I hope it works.

The pleasure is all mine

Oil pastels might work great with this technique

You're awesome, thanks for this! I've always wanted to try this technique...And your tut was very instructive and simple! Used here. [link]
I didn't have the materials mentioned, like the black canson paper and soft pencil pastels.(the ones I have can't sharpen)...but I think it worked out OK.
