Sunday morning pastel
The homework in my pastel class this week was to draw a landscape. My heart sank, I've never done a landscape in any medium and didn't know how to start -- other than to pray and jump in. This view is over my back yard fence. Of course it doesn't look anything like this but it's the best I can do and just gives me one more thing to practice, practice, practice.
In the meantime, I've been trying to read more and finished these books in the last couple weeks. I recommend both.
That's a good first try on a landscape, Barbara! I find them difficult as well. I'm always more comfortable with cityscapes!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great start, Barbara. I find landscapes difficult too, but keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteIf that's your first landscape, I think you did a great job. I'm just starting to get back into pastels. I loved them when I wa sin art school and I'm sure that once I figure out what I'm doing, I'll love them even more. Don't get discouraged! Keep practicing.
