Soft Pastels for Beginners: Learn to Draw Easy Realistic Animals

Hi Kristen! I really like your drawing! The blending between your shades is very smooth and you have natural transitions between colours. I would say you should apply more layers! Ideally you want to apply enough layers that you can't see the grainy texture of the paper beneath the pastels. Additionally, pay a little more attention to the proportions. I like to compare the size of certain areas with others (e.g. how big are the eyes compared to the nose? How tall are the bunny's ears compared to the height of the head). Creating proportions is like a puzzle - once you have one section figured out you can compare everything to it. Those points would be my main feedback and I think you'd improve very quickly once you try this! I hope it's helpful and let me know if you have any questions or would like more tips.  If you enjoyed the class, would you consider leaving a review? That would really help my class find more students.  Overall I think your bunny and chick are adorable, thank you so much for uploading your art! :)

Early days with pastel! Could use some feedback. Thanks!!
