Spring Landscape Painting Tutorial: Forsythia with Pastels

Описание: This soft pastels tutorial walks you through the steps of spring landscape painting with forsythia and flowers. I use the wet underpainting technique to establish the base colors for the atmospheric background and bring the energy to the foreground colors. I show how to paint the trees in the background that let the main center of interest, forsythia, shine.

For the Underpainting technique:
Hard pastels (I used NuPastels, currently the company sells them only as sets, but you can use other hard pastel brands if you'd like to get single sticks)
Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) for the underpainting (sold in pharmacies)
Flat Synthetic brush 3/4" (sold in craft and art supply stores, get a cheaper one, don't ruin good watercolor brushes on sanded paper!)
