Great activities.
For the classes I used white and black pastels in pencil. I used gray paper before, but that was a long time ago and only for graphite pencils. The method is fantastic and actually exercises the eye. It allows you to analyze the subject, tones. Sometimes it's not easy. Interesting: I saw some places of light or lack of it only in the photo. hmmm. I don't know yet how I will protect the pastel, but I would like to keep these sketches, they are beautiful

Only in the photos did I notice that I hadn't finished the moka pot (is that the name in English?). It was my last project today and I was in too much of a hurry. Fortunately, I took a photo and I can finish it

 The tools you use and recommend look great. I had no idea about them. They went on my shopping list. Thank you very much for these classes, they are very insightful for me. I have an obsession with adding details and always adding something new to what I do, and I tried not to do that here. You can create fantastic things in a short time, practice, create sketches for larger work, and take notes. I think I'll come back to this lesson.

 

These are fantastic activities. I came back to them with posca markers and lots of paper.
