<\/a><\/p>\nTo start with I didn’t like working on the Buttercup coloured Pastelmat paper but it actually worked really well for this subject. That being said the dark grey or brown Pastelmat would also have worked well. <\/p>\n
This project was one that I did over Christmas last year after my husband showed an interest in drawing. For someone who had never picked up any kind of art supply I was really impressed with what he created. <\/p>\n
The full length tutorial over on Patreon (www.patreon.com\/zaratomsart) shows his version and the mistakes he made as a complete beginner. It was these mistakes that made me realise just how important it is when it comes to how you hold the pencil and how you use it to create different pencil strokes depending on the desired effect you are trying to replicate. <\/p>\n
I speak about why I hold my pencil in certain way, where on the pencil I will hold it to apply varying degrees of pressure to create different pencil strokes and how pastel pencils are just like a paintbrush. Depending on how you use it you can create many different effects. <\/p>\n
If you think Patreon may be a fit for you but you may have questions please feel free to email me anytime at zara.toms@hotmail.co.uk<\/p>\n
