These are some of my sketches as well as reference pictures. This piece was a bit of a challenge because it was difficult to blend the chalky texture of pastel with the smooth liquidy coverage of acrylic paint. However, in the end, the various mediums blended together surprisingly well.

Remember that you are beautiful, and stay strong!❤️
