Ok so I recently started using chalk pastels because my friends recommended it to me because Im a "Artist in the making" as they call me. I tried it a couple times for the past week and I have fallen in love with doing it. They different shades are amazing! I personally like using my hands and fingers to shade though. Anyways, I have become extremely good at using them and I was wondering if you could give me websites of already finished chalk pastel drawings and stuff so that I can do some more with the pastels. Oh and how do you sharpen a chalk pastel because mine are in kinda brick form so its harder to get good thin lines. 13/f Thanx :) (link)
Hey! (:
Chalk pastels are amazing! Good recommendation there haha.
Are your pastels soft? If they are there isn't much you can do to sharpen them (unless they're short enough to mold haha. I joke). But that's if they're really soft. If not, you could use a knife/blade to carefully shave them to a point or break off pieces to get the edge to do thin lines.

As for the sites, there is always deviantart.com. It's a website full of artists who put up their work and, trust me, they're all splendid. It's a really popular site for artwork done by the average artist (average person creations) and/or professionals. (:
Some others are:

I'm sure your drawings are fabulous! Keep creating~
