Learn techniques useful for any pet or animal portrait when using pastels on velour. Vic Bearcroft teaches about using observation rather than measurement and demonstrates how to create a sketch using basic shapes and angles, followed by a tonal sketch before moving on to colour, detail and highlights.
Vic completes this portrait using only 5 pastels, a fantastic lesson in how to get the most out of just a few materials.
