Advanced pastel techniques 和諧粉彩 is known to have the silent power to heal the broken, comfort the troubled and bring sanity to a confused mind. Having a tender palette of soft pinks, quiet blues and relaxed greens, pastel art guides us into a place where we can start healing emotionally. It is not merely a feast to the eyes, it can go deeper, to the heart.
Something with these subdued colors makes me want to breathe those colors as I felt like I was holding my chest too tight. They act as a balm to the soul. When you look at a pastel work the world comes to a crawl. It is like every colour is telling you that it is alright to feel. No rush, no demands, just peace. It is the type of peace you can get in your bones, deep in you.
Pastel art is as though it can only talk in a language of the heart. The shades are gentle, almost whiskey. A pink that says “you are loved.” A blue that will lend some quiet peace. And an earthy green which balances you, and makes you feel in better touch with the ground you walk upon. It’s not loud. It doesn’t insist. But it can soothe the inner noise, the inner noise.
Looking at these paintings you get the impression that they are asking you to stop–to just breathe. The relaxing colors will be able to take the burden off your shoulders and allow you to create the room where positive thoughts will be able to flourish. As though the very art itself produces some kind of a calming effect, letting light in the darker facets of your heart.
Then the next time, when you are feeling heavy of heart or your head is jumbled up, envelop yourself in pastels. Let them work their magic. Allow the serenity to overcome you and gradually, bit by bit, get yourself back to positivity.
