Just my 2 cents.
So why do so many artists who use pastel sticks refer to their work as paintings? Why?

I think they use it interchangiably with a portrait on how it started and everyone went with it. Still think there is a size issue also on when you can call it a painting or portrait.

Here is why.

I do pastels, but when you tell someone that, their first thought is 'homo' so I just say I paint, which is true as I do watercolors also.
I think pastel painting is fine, but to me paintings have to use a brush.

But many do refer to pastels as paintings, especially if they are good size works.

He sounds like an old angry prick though.

Well finger painting involves 'paint', so that one seemed kinda self-explanatory.

So it has to involve a brush or paint? I couldn't paint my girlfriend's face with cum just by spraying it?

After the fact, would you refer to her face as a "painting?"

Pastels are technically paintings... your coworker is an ignorant blowhard and needs to go back to art school.

Is a watercolor a painting? Is a fresco a painting? The answer is YES.
Pastels are exactly the same as the above.. just that the pigment is in a different medium.

Quote:
Both the International Association of Pastel Societies and The Pastel Journal magazine use the term painting for artworks created with pastel.
Tell your coworker to SUCK IT.
