We don锟絫 teach you tricks 锟?we lay out a time-honored process that helps you become the artist you were meant to be, not the shadow of someone else.
The format for this book is easy to follow. We start with pastel basics so that you can get a handle on the technical aspects of pastel and paper and set yourself up to work efficiently. Because drawing and modeling forms is so important to pastel, we provide some easy-to-follow instructions for mark-making and give you a basic primer in drawing and color. After applying those skills in simple still life, we explore ways that you can express yourself and experiment with different approaches to pastel images. Finally, we help you get started working in genre painting 锟?landscape, portrait, and figure 锟?so that you can have a broad range of skills to build on as you move forward with your pastel artwork.
Throughout this book, you find sketchbook exercises and step-by-step instructions for projects. Never fear if you锟絩e a rank beginner 锟?we don锟絫 assume you already know how to draw well.
