"Energy" pastel painting

This is the first painting i’ve done since taking my easel back out, and hopefully the start of many more to come. I have no plan to stop anytime soon, I guess i’ve been feeling inspired about life lately. Please feel free to critique or comment.

really excellent!
I am just getting back into doing art-its been decades. I used to draw all the time and quit,
never done paint.

you said pastel painting is this a type of paint or is it pastels to look like painting?

Yes they’re pastels. I wouldn’t know any other way to describe it besides saying you’re painting. I’ve seen people achieve great levels of realism using pastels… so maybe the are worthy enough to say you’re painting.

Thats really cool. You are talented.

very nice. lots of detail in the waves…must have taken you a long time?

About 3 hours I tend to work barely fast.
