Pastel still life








The pastel still life project was one of my favorites. I brought in fruit from the fruit bowl at my house, and decided to draw the objects. The thumbnail sketch is a sketch we did in our sketchbook. It is a tiny drawing of the objects we chose. We used a viewfinder to help draw the thumbnail sketch. The viewfinder took a little piece of the objects and showed all of the colors and composition. The viewfinder allowed us to view the objects by little pieces at a time. I added shadows to the fruit to make them look realistic and three dimensional. I made the left side darker and the right side lighter. This represented that the light in the drawing comes in on the right side.
