This is a pastel drawing of some random objects. It was fun
to do, because I love pastels. When I start to draw with pastels I always pick
a light color to start sketching with. Once I am done with sketching I start to
block in large areas of color looking for shapes. After that I begin to blend
the colors together. I use blending stubs, soft tissue, and a shammy for
blending. I don’t use my fingers because the oils from my skin makes it look to
greasy and smudgy.
The hardest thing about making this drawing was the reflections, and transparency. Doing those tiny details is tough because the pastel has a rectangular shape, and it’s not a pencil. I also had to be careful not to smear anything by accident with my arm, and palm. Because pastels smear easily. I should also think about spraying a fixative on it, so it does not get damaged if someone touches it. So I hope people enjoy this pastel drawing, because I had a blast making it.
