Pastel Practice

Figure Drawing 22-23

The human body is made up of simple shapes such as

Spheres

“Eggs”

Cylinders

STEP 1

Choose Color Harmony

Analogous- Analogous groups of three colors that are next to each other on the color wheel

Monochromatic- monochromatic colors are all the colors of a single hue but different values (light and dark) Think light to dark values of a single color.

STEP 2

Draw a circle for your sphere

STEP 3

Establish your highlight with your lightest value (remember white is always the lightest highlight possible)- you can always go darker but not lighter.

STEP 4

Continue to shade your sphere consider your darkest value and mid tone. ***** Don't forget to either blend with a tortillon or by applying more layers of material.

Show your color choices labels next to your forms. Pictured here I showed my highlight color, medium tones, and my darkest color as my shadow.
