Drawn traditional with a 2b and 6b pencils on rag paper later scan in then painted with the smart strokes Pastel Chalk and the Real Soft Pastel found in Painter 12. In order to get the texture in this painting I use the Paper Panel that can be found in the menu bar under Windows. I use a customize paper that I made call Aztec and another paper by artist Andrew Jones that come installed with Painter 12. I use the Real Soft Pastel brush in all my paintings when I need texture this is a great brush when use with the Paper Panel to achieve texture.
