Hello everyone.

I'm interested in creating large-scale pastel artworks and would love to hear from others who have experience with this. Specifically, I'm curious about the techniques you use to maintain vibrancy and prevent smudging on larger surfaces.

I recently came across a collection of large-size pieces https://www.pastelbrush.com/en/tags/large-size/ that inspired me, but I’m looking for practical advice from artists who have actually worked on big projects.

Additionally, what types of pastels and paper do you recommend for such works?

Any tips on framing or displaying large pastel pieces would also be appreciated.
