Join me as we create this beautiful pair of Zebra Finches in soft pastel, from the softly blurred bird in the background to the detailed little finch taking centre stage.
Along the way, I'll show you how to simplify feathers rather than drawing every single one, use lost and found edges to create depth, and tackle water and reflections without getting overwhelmed by all those ripples.
This tutorial is about more than recreating one painting. You'll learn techniques for soft and sharp edges, focal points, feather textures and reflections that you can take with you into your future wildlife artwork.
Work along with me step-by-step, at your own pace, and create a finished pastel painting you'll be proud to photograph, frame and display.
