    Morning Dave, I’ve subscribed to your channel. I just wanted to ask which of the range of pastel pencils you would recommend for pastel portraits and pet portraits, for people that are on a limited income and can’t afford to buy all the sets you mention. Thanks for showing what you do. Please have a thought for those struggling with serious priority choices. I’m not criticising. I’m grateful for what you do.
