Pastel Art Storage Solutions

Throughout my pastel art career finding storage solutions for finished pieces has been a challenge. I have typically kept finished pieces in the resealable plastic bags that I have shared in videos. I also include a piece of foam core board in the bag for support.  

Because this can be time consuming, I have come up with a nice and efficient way to store my paintings and catalog them as well. The end result also makes for a very nice presentation of my paintings.

Check out these pics showing how I use a Sketchbook of Black Canson Drawing Paper as a Pastel Art Storage System.... (see the picture descriptions for more info).  You could use a sketchbook with plain white paper as well (which would probably be less expensive), but I think the black looks professional. I also use a separate sketchbook to paint directly on the pages and protect in the same way.  Check it out!
