Soft and warm illustration of a red-haired girl walking through an autumn park under a gentle rain. She wears a green coat, orange tights and holds a green umbrella. The scene feels peaceful and cozy, with orange leaves floating around. Text at the bottom reads “Le bonheur au fil des pas”.

Fresh from the studio: a 9x12 pastel still life of squash and pumpkins. I loved working with the warm tones and dramatic shadows—especially the cut pumpkin spilling seeds like a story half-told. Texture, light, and autumn’s quiet abundance. #PastelArt #StillLife #CanadianArtist #BlueskyArt

A fresh crusty loaf, soft butter and a bold wedge of blue-veined beauty, all resting on a lace-draped wooden table. I wanted to capture the textures that invite touch and taste. This pastel piece was a joy to build up layer by layer.

“The Effort” (oil pastels on paper, 14x11, 2025, J. Pitzl) #art #artist #artsky #fineart #contemporaryart #oilpastels #pastelart

In an orange room, there is a doorway. In front of it four figures are seen congregating. One turns to leave. There’s a sense of isolation. The piece is made with oil pastels on paper. Art by Jason Thomas Pitzl.

Milo & Bo’s Rainy Day Chaos – When Staying Dry Turns into Splash Art!

#MiloAndBo #CuteCatAndDog #RainyDayFun #PastelArt #PetComics #WholesomePets #FunnyAnimals #DigitalIllustration #PetArt #CatAndDogHumor #WholesomeArt #RainyVibes #CuteCartoon #AnimalLovers #ComicStyleArt

Milo (😼 the calm cat) is all ready for the rain — pastel umbrella, perfect raincoat, and full focus on staying dry. Meanwhile, Bo (🤪 the goofy dog) turns puddles into his personal art project — umbrella upside down, mud flying, joy everywhere! 🌈💦

Because with Milo & Bo, even a rainy day becomes a pastel comedy of chaos and friendship! 🎨🐾
Adorable pastel cartoon of Milo the cat and Bo the dog on a rainy city street. Milo, calm and tidy, holds a pastel umbrella and wears a raincoat. Bo, silly and wild, jumps into puddles with his umbrella upside down, splashing water everywhere under doodle rain clouds and a faint rainbow. Cute, colorful, and full of playful energy, showing their funny rainy-day personalities.

The second #PastelPainting of my Parisian series. I've always been charmed by Parisian rooftops and chimneys. More versions of this #cityscape to come.

#pastelart #sunset #paris #art #painting #feance #rooftops

Pastel painting of a view on the Montmartre district at sunset from the window of an apartment in Paris, where I've been staying this summer.
Vivid sunset colours in the sky and a more dimmed palette for the buildings (Siena, blue/gray and creme tones).

If I forget to draw something for Halloween, consider this my spooky art! It's strangely therapeutic to create pastel gore art. No idea why. #TWGore #PastelGore #CandyGore #PastelArt #SweetGore

Alanna Artroid is smiling in a dance-like position, while pastel guts, sweets, and candy spill out. Included there are cakes, strawberries, wrapped candies both large and small, hearts, stars, and candy corn. In addition, there is a straw stuck in an exposed brain, dripping a pink drop of blood.

Squash Leaves In Abstract - October 2025
Pastel on ingres paper.

I visited a pumpkin patch with my wife for our third anniversary and felt inspired. Using this as a chance to try out some new methodologies from an abstract painting book by Rolina van Vliet.
#art #pastelart

A pastel painting consisting of a a green field divided by an off-centre brown stripes. The diagonal motion of the background can be seen through the blending.
In the foreground are a series of green acute-angled curves placed in a way to evoke the image of squash leaves. White dots within the nooks of these curves represent the unique patterning on the leaves.

🦉✨A gentle hoot in the pumpkin light…
Just a tiny owl in a witch hat, glowing in the warmth of autumn.
Soft magic. Cozy skies.
Do you feel it too?

A warm, soft illustration of a little brown owl wearing a witch hat, standing next to a glowing jack-o’-lantern. The owl spreads its wings with a joyful expression. Autumn leaves float around them under a cozy orange light. At the top, the handwritten text reads: “A gentle hoot in the pumpkin light.”
