Level: Intermediate

This is a very different way of drawing and you'll want a good fur technique. 

Illustrative Style

This piece is far less painterly and we will explore pastel pencils in a different light.

A New Style

Instead of the normal underpainting process, this miniature hare uses fine details right from the start. We will use pastel pencils to create an illustrative effect - perfect for a nursery room.

Anatomy

Even though this hare drawing is very illustrative, we will actually use anatomy to bring it to life. Instead of a structural underpainting using tones, we will use fur direction to show the structures beneath the skin.

Small Details

The whole piece will be kept simple and use a reduced colour palette. See how we can add grasses without them over taking the work.

Dark to Light?

For this piece, we will be using pastel pencils in a whole new way! No strict dark-to-light rules, instead, we build up textures using a variety of pencils all at once. This class should help unlock your creative side and see pastel pencils in a whole new light.
