Skin Tone Drawing Demonstration With Pastel Pencils

November 23, 2010 by Ralph S Leave a Comment

Here is a two part pastel drawing video by artist Colin Bradley. In this video tutorial, Colin demonstrates his process for creating  flesh tones in his portraits.

Its important to note that every artist has his or her own way of doing things.  This process is by no means the only way to draw a portrait with pastels.  This is just Colin’s method.

Colin begins by adding a generous amount of white to his sketch.  Using a circular motion with his finger, he blends the white pastel right into the paper.

He then begins to lay in his other colors in layers, blending along the way and creating his lights and darks. He continues this process, using nearly a dozen different colors, until the drawing is complete.  The end result is a beautiful pastel portrait.  Draw this portrait along with Colin and see what you can come up with.  Enjoy!
