By far, my MOST ASKED QUESTION in the comments of my videos is, "How do you protect and store your pastel paintings?"

I thought it would be a great idea to just bring you into my home studio and give you an up close and personal demo of my process.... from protecting, storing and even how I prep my paintings for shipping to a buyer.

I hope this is helpful for many budding pastel artists out there, and now I have a video I can share whenever I get this question in the future.

Please leave me a comment and let me know if you would like more behind the scenes "how to videos". I think many are interested in what it takes to have a full time art business, so feel free to share some topics with me.
