Painting Rocks and Trees in Soft Pastels
In this video I demonstrate a painting of rocky cliffs and trees at Acadia National Park in Maine. I used a hard pastel underpainting with Prismacolor NuPastels and an isopropyl alcohol wash. After that dried, I layered soft pastels on top to create this impressionistic scene!
Supplies used:
*UArt sanded paper, 400 grit
*Prismacolor NuPastels
*Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol, surgical spirit)
*Soft Pastels (various brands - Great American, Terry Ludwig, Richeson, etc)
Just a little note....
