Painting in Pastels (PB)

Author(s): Robert Brindley

Practical Art

Pastels are an extremely versatile and immediate medium. These characteristics can lead to bold, exciting and impromptu paintings. However, their responsive, flexible nature can also be used to create subtle, gentle colour with little or no texture. This practical book will guide you through the full scope of painting in pastels and explain particularly how they can be used to capture light, colour and texture. With step-by-step instructions in a wide range of subject matter, "Painting in Pastels" will be invaluable for beginners and experienced artists.
