This week we continued looking at light & dark tones and how they describe the contours of the face. Then we added colour using soft pastels. These pastels are great for creating smooth changes in tone and colour because you can blend them easily using fingertips. Well done everyone, great work again!

See you next week for the last lesson of the current term.

This week we used these water soluble Inktense blocks to create our wonderful portraits. We’re now starting to focus more on proportion which is key to making better portraits. This medium allowed us to experiment more with colour mixing too. Great work everyone, well done!

A pretty tough challenge this week I think. Using fine liner pen and cross hatching technique to create all those different tones in the face. Well done everyone for keeping at it and learning as you go. Brilliant work!

Looking forward to seeing more of your fab work next week!
