PASTEL PERSPECTIVES
Part 9- Ideas and Techniques
Over the past few issues in this series, we have looked at a number of topics: trees; grasses; seascapes; water; cloudscapes; and painting en plein air. This time, I’d like to take the opportunity to revisit and reflect on a few of these topics. Using pastels and sketches from beautiful Norfolk Island, and some other special areas near my home in south eastern New South Wales, I’ll share the ideas and technique underpinning my work.
