Watercolor Pastels for Beginners

Watercolor Pastels for Beginners - student project

I've had these pastels for a while. Have played around with them but never really figured out what to do with them. This was a fun class. I liked doing the sample sketch better than my class project. When it comes to shading, I'm never quite sure where to start, nor when to quit. I definitely think I need the textured palette. I ended up mixing the colors by scraping shavings with an exacto knife and adding water. Thanks for another great class!
