Live Lessons: Marsh Landscape with Pastels
Lessons
About This Lesson Series...
In this lesson series, we create a drawing of a marsh landscape with pastels. Pastels are applied to develop the landscape from the top to the bottom of the picture plane. This order is important due to the opaque characteristics of pastels. We can layer over the top of applications already in place.
Lesson 1 (1:07:54)
In lesson one, we develop the sky and establish the distant trees on the horizon.
Lesson 2 (1:08:43)
In lesson two, we work down below the horizon and begin developing the marsh.
Lesson 3 (1:02:45)
In lesson three, we continue work on the upper middle ground and add the tall trees on the right side of the picture plane.
Lesson 4 (1:03:04)
In lesson four, we develop details in the middle ground using pastel pencils.
Lesson 5 (1:04:47)
In lesson five, we reach the bottom 1/3 of the picture plane, continuing to develop the details of the grasses.
Lesson 6 (1:11:08)
In lesson six, we complete the drawing.
