Pastels really are an “immediate” medium—they require no drying time and a minimum of tools. In fact, you can often use your fingers to blend the colors right on the canvas. Jenny Keal’s beginner’s guide to painting with pastels shows you all of the tools and techniques you’ll need to create beautiful compositions with subtle tones and vibrant colors. Learn to paint lovely landscapes and florals with five step-by-step demonstrations, go on to design your own compositions with ample tips for improving your painting, and discover how rewarding working with this fun medium can be. The instructions are very detailed in that they’re broken into bite-sized bits and paired with dozens of photos to guide you through practically every stroke.
