    I actually find pastels one of the easiest mediums to layer and build up colour with. I always get frustrated with other media like acrylics and watercolours, and I've completely given up on coloured pencils because it just takes way too much to build up colour. That's just my personal opinion anyway.

    Are you using oil or oil free pastels? I like oil myself. But I tend to struggle blending. It takes a lot of finger pressure to get a proper blend going and often tends to hurt after a while.

    Though "Table" component disappointingly amateurish, the pears and technique otherwise masterful. Table looks like it's made of construction paper cutouts, not wood which would be more convincing and simpler to render if out of dark walnut with a reflective, waxed finish, which would have reflected the "glow" of the pears.
