I thought I'd share what I am working on today. I haven't painted any roosters yet but when I saw this photo I knew I had to try them! I started with my usual method of drawing the roosters with a pastel pencil and then blocking in with hard pastels and then I stopped.....I realized it was easier and more exciting to start right in with the soft pastels like we did at the Margaret Dyer workshop...and while I was at it why not build up the painting like we learned! This photo shows how I have started building the darks and added the lights...now if I have done it correctly the rest will be middle tones. It's like a puzzle. We'll see how it turns out!
