Today I will talk about the last lesson on the course. But this will not be the last art I will do on this course. I have forward results for all three directions. I have to go outside and draw a roof from nature. But it's tomorrow. And today I paint with a picture with pastel.

I draw mungyo crayons and Podolskaya pastel on mi-teintes canson paper. This lesson begins with a story about how the sketch differs from the finished picture. We are invited to try to draw windows. In the sketch, the main thing is to outline the window, it can not be drawn! Here's what I got.

Then I paint trees. The most important thing is the silhouette of a tree. Silhouette should be alive and interesting. We must carefully avoid dark places in the trees and arrange bright gleams in the foliage.

And now the most interesting. I draw St. Petersburg. I have such a palette of crayons.

First I draw a sketch with a pastel brown pencil. I build a picture completely, I plan dark places and after that I use a fixative. Fixative will help me in the future and the brown drawing will not be erased and will not dirty the light colors of the pastel.

Now I'm starting to type the color. I start with a light sky, then add color to the roof in the foreground and spread the color throughout the work.

I do not have enough gray in background. This is the silhouette of the city. I'm adding a few more details and on this my sketch is ready.

I want to note that painting with pastels is very difficult. I have not experienced such a state for a long time when I really want to paint, but I do not want to take up pastel))) With this lesson, I pulled to last, but managed to pass on time. I had thoughts of throwing pastel ... but something inside me said that I should not do this))) And now, I reached the finals. It remains for me to draw the final work on the street, but I do not know how I will bring the crayons with me, where I will wash my hands and how this whole process will happen))) I do not have such problems with markers and watercolor (I already painted on the street and not once). Let's see what will happen tomorrow!))

All my paintings can be bought for sbd/steem
