Pastel Pencils


Playing with my pastel pencils.

Second art class. August 3013. We applied a heavy coat of charcoal to paper then removed the highlights. This was very challenging, like doing it all backwards. Cat helped me with the leaves. She made them look like leaves rather than blobs. I was drawing LEAVES. She drew shapes and values.

Art Lessons

Started art lessons last night at Crealde School of Art with Cat Hempel. I learned so much! We all drew our hands with a #2 pencil.
