Tuesday 12 January 2010


Course work: Assembled a setup for the oil pastel drawing on A3 paper, incorporating a yellow squash, a purple-red pear, a green cabbage, and a red-orange pepper. Did two preliminary sketches in my course sketchbook, then cropped one and sketched it lightly on the grey A3 paper I selected. A very light hatched layer was then applied. I then began to apply additional layers, varying the colors to work toward local color and tone.
