Bird in Pastels.
Just had a go at the bird in pastels, quite a few mistakes, my biggest problem is I am colour blind and often I pick a colour that I think it is without looking at the number,I will try harder next time, the other problem is rushing instead of taking my time

Hi Alex
Being color blind can be a blessing in disguise. I have an artist friend who is color blind and he creates some impressive color combinations in his art work.

When I am painting I have a card with holes in, I put one of the holes over the colour im trying to get, then mix my paints next to the hole until i get a match.

What a beautiful wave of positivity 😊
I’m honestly so impressed seeing you all help and motivate each other like this.
Alex, being color blind and still playing with colors, finding your own ways around it, that’s phenomenal. That mindset is exactly how artists grow. Limits don’t stop you. They shape your style 👍
And good news for everyone. A new pastel drawing is coming soon. I discovered a lot of new techniques while working on it, and I can’t wait to share them with you all 🎨🙌2 -

I’m very excited to see that new pastel drawing @alihaiderrehman I have only done one pastel drawing so far of a tiger eye. Last year I got my very first pastel pencils for Christmas of 2024 and very quickly I discovered that there is a lot to learn about that medium lol. Unfortunately my job does not allow me a lot of time to draw and practice like I’d like to. Another reason why I am taking this course. The faster I can get the more time I would have to do what I love to do. I very curious as to what it will be of and I can’t wait to see it Ali.
