30 day pastel challenge

Oh…and your jellyfish turned out nice. I do want to keep encouraging you to work outside of the box! All your artwork here turned out really nice with your own style shinning through.

So my self imposed challenge is over :sob: my final drawing is an old live lesson from 2015. It took me 3 days. I used pan pastels and carbothello pencils. I did it on brown paper as it was all I had. I used black panpastel for the background as the brown was a bit icky.

I really enjoyed this challenge, as the weeks went on I found that I got much more relaxed with the media and much more observant, with colours and shading etc.. also I really enjoyed the mess. Usually I hate messy hands!

I might give myself a little break, but doing a drawing a day really speaks to me. Plus I want to fill up my sketch book as much as possible this year​:grinning_face:. Last year I did a 30 day self imposed drawing challenge with graphite and charcoal. It really reignited my interest in drawing. I will check out the courses you suggest. I am doing boot camp 2.0 and the trumpet live lesson. I am behind on both.:laughing:

Yes, I am usually behind on the lessons. I have a few that are half done and I keep saying that I am going to go back and finish them.

I am really behind on the trumpet but there are a few days until Wednesday. I’ve been working on the tulips so am almost caught up.

Teresa,

Your lily’s are lovely. I am enjoying your journey on Pastels.

Did you see the video with three 1 hour pastel drawings? It came in an email from Matt. When I get some artwork finished that for some friends I think I will do these. They are lovely landscapes.

I’ll keep am eye out for your next artwork.

I will check my emails! It sounds good. Most of Matts emails end up in my spam box.

I am going to do a 30day sketch prompt challenge. I have a list of prompts I am on day 3 and I think this will be a bit of fun and a nice warm up!
