Haven’t posted in quite a while! I struggled with not the right greens. But it was fun and I don’t hate it! I used mi teintes pastel paper. ![IMG_9189](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/d/d6ce8fd21de51d785b08c51e08de45b35fcfef69.jpeg) ---

Hey @junenez , thanks for sharing your art , I tried this too. Mine are quite hard beginners pastels and limited colours , so I totally get what you mean about not having the right greens. You seem to have a nice warm dark green which I envied !. Love the sky holes in your foreground tree , mine got smudged , ah well , try again. I may invest in a softer better set. Hope I see more of your posts Trevor ---

Here’s my Getting Sketchy. It’s on the pastelmat Matt used. I used some square sticks of Mungyo Gallery Artist’s soft pastels that I bought during Thanksgiving break. I do have rembrandt but wanted to try those new (new to me) ones. The range of greens are brighter, not as natural as the greens rembrandts have, also a little too dusty but not too bad. Actually completed along with Matt kinda my way. 😄 ![IMG_8010](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/0/05075372a047511d535285a691f3a5b0be3de866.jpeg) ---

@junenez I struggled with the right greens also. But anything pastels is my absolute favorite. Thank you for always posting your Getting Sketchy drawings: thanks to you I did mine 😁 Sonia Alonzo ---

Hi Trevor and Sonia, Great job! I love trying to keep up Matt (or Ashley) and seeing what I can do in the short amount of time. Thanks for sharing your work. It is fun to see how we all end up with something a little bit different! June, ---

@janed Very nice! Love the fence/gate and the defined depth in the mid ground and foreground. Sonia Alonzo ---

Better late than never. Here is my Gettin’ Sketchy pastel landscape from Dec 4, 2024. A couple notes: Matt’s drawing was about 5x7 but I decided to do mine as 8x10 which made it easier to include the fence. Also, for the first time I used Canson Mi-Teintes TOUCH paper which is an equivalent to PastelMat. I thought it worked quite nicely. My pastels were Rembrandt (same as Matt used). Finally, as many know I have a problem doing things quickly. I think I spent about 5 hours on this.

Terri @robichon , thanks for sharing , that’s very lovely and cheers me up from the gloomy English weather as it is right now ! I got some Rembrandt half sticks a week or so ago. I have a photo of my youngest son which I want to draw/paint with them when I have time to devote to it. Trev
