What you will learn

Use Pastel Pencil Techniques to draw a Sunset

Apply the light to dark rule when layering pastel tones

Be able to apply the techniques to their own pictures and landscapes

Why take this course?

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 small range of pastel pencils to create a stunning picture of a Sunset Landscape! It is designed for all levels including absolute beginners.

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

Because you only need 6 pencils for this picture, it's an ideal art project for beginner artists. Once you have followed this class you will be able to continue with more beginners landscapes and work your way to an intermediate level.

Colin walks you through step by step with Video instruction how to draw each stage. You'll learn techniques behind drawing landscapes and create a piece of 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.
