Professional Tips
Work from light to dark values, establishing broad colour areas first before refining details. Use the flat side of the pastel stick for covering large areas quickly, and the edge for fine lines and details. Apply a light spray of fixative between layers to build depth without muddying colours. A gentle final fix preserves the finished piece while maintaining colour vibrancy.
