This week the pastel class did a still life of bowl and apples. I quickly made the mistake of making the focus to large. I ended up with lots of blank paper. I cropped the initial sketch to zoom in on the focal point. I had to use the sketch values to get the lights and darks. I definitely want to set up another one under lights and give myself time to work completly from the still life. This class was from Barbara Jaenicke's weekly pastel class.
