Brief Introduction

Learn to draw Roses, Tulips and Daffodils with Colin Bradley. Learn Pastel Pencil Techniques for your own pictures.

Description

In my 30+ Years of Teaching Experience I have found that Pastel Pencils is the by far the easiest art medium to pick up and learn.

In this course you will learn how to use a range of pastel pencils to create 4 stunning pictures!

Vase of Roses
Vase of Tulips
Vase of Daffodils
BONUS - Rose in Snow

I believe these three subjects are a great combination of learning techniques for drawing flowers. The Vase of Roses is a lovely traditional picture where as the tulips are a more contemporary looking picture.

With the daffodils we venture into a new paper - PastelMat. This is a great addition as you will learn how I work with another surface and the techniques involved in layering on a different coloured paper. I also show how to work with other brands of pencils, sticking predominantly Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils and introducing a few Cretacolor and CarbOthello as well.

The Rose in Snow project is a special bonus we've included in this bundle. We think this would make a lovely Christmas Card for your friends and family too!

I would recommend this course for intermediate level artists. Perhaps you have tried my free courses and want to venture into the next level up or have already used Pastel Pencils before.

If you are just starting out with pastel pencils let me not discourage you from giving this subject a go, you will certainly learn a lot from the lessons and hopefully enjoy it as you do!

We provide you with an outline drawing for each subject so that you do not have to draw free hand. Trace this through to your paper or print it straight out using your printer.

We walk you through step by step with Video instruction how to draw each stage. You'll learn techniques behind drawing flowers and create art you can be proud of.

We have broken the course down into bitesize chunks that you can follow and return to with ease.

If you love drawing and want to discover easy techniques to create stunning art that you can transfer to your own pictures then this course is for you.
