Pastel Painting - Bird: Goldcrest

First I did a bird study to make sure I could draw a Goldcrest.



Then I drew it on navy Daler Rowney Pastel paper.  This paper has only a small tooth in which the pastels will stick to - so not the best paper out there, but great for a practice piece.


I drew the entire picture with a soft white pastel for a basic outline.


After choosing my palette . . . . the results. I am pleased with it and may decide I would like to do it on a much higher grade paper.   A higher grade paper would let my feathery strokes show up clearer and the entire painting would be more brilliant.

Catching up on my posting . . . . . sketching every day to improve my skills - I can see progress!  And some I've even added a water color wash, since I love watercolors and their transparency!
