The task:
- choose three soft pastels; light, mid-tone & dark
- using the mid-tone and light marks, make an observational drawing of the subject, an interior, on the paper
- add dark and light tones
- rub across the work with kitchen towel - this lifts off some pastel but leaves a spread of the colour over the paper and a stain where heavier lines had been drawn. This process gives a softness & movement to the drawing.
- redraw over the top using the under-drawing as a guide but checking proportions etc from observation
- Repeat steps 2 - 5 until satisfied with the work or the time runs out.
- consider composition using "magic corners"
Not an easy task. Very well done everyone!
