Blocked in study in pastels
On Wednesday I usually go to life drawing.
It's so educational to draw a model from life!
There seems to be a sense of 'freshness' that's
nonparallel to working from a photo.
Above is my first stage of blocking in the
red-headed model. I underlaid three pastel
shades onto the paper before starting to sketch
to give a nice undertone.
Below is a more progressed stage.

PINK FIELDS 12" x 9" pastel on canvas panel PRIVATE COLLECTOR I'm teaching "Introduction to Pastels" once again at UCSD Extension this summer and will be covering a whole array of techniques from washes, to layering and strokes and in various genres. "PINK FIELDS" was the demo piece in illustrating washes on textured panels in an impressionistic style.
