Imagine being in a beautiful landscape. Pastel paints are meant to depict the way that light dances across the leaves. The gentle breeze, the colors, and the soft caressing of the air. What do you need to know? Working with harmony pastels is a great way to explore your creativity. Perhaps start with the skies. It’s not only blue, but it is a palette of infinite hues. You can use pastels to create the subtle gradients that occur at sunrise, the vivid blues and oranges associated with sunsets or midday skies. Colors can be blended and layered to create an amazing sky.
Greens don’t come in a singular shade. The leaves are dynamic, with each one a new note in the melody of nature. Pastel paints can be used to create texture and depth, and make each leaf dance on the canvas. You need to be able to distinguish between the different shades of green, as well as the blues and purples within each leaf. This is like creating a harmony song where every color represents a different note.
How about the ocean, the land or the mountains? The rhythm of each element is different. Soft pastel strokes are a great way to capture the texture of rocks in a mountain range, the flow of water flowing down a river or the expanse of a vast field. You can create a landscape by adding layers of color and texture.
