Build Up Tree Detail using Pastel Pencils

Jun 21

The most popular video we have on our YouTube Channel is one entitled "Tree Detail in Pastel Pencils". At the time of writing this it has over 100,000 views and was uploaded on December 7th 2007. Trees are notably the most difficult part of doing landscape pictures and this explains why this clip is so popular.The demonstration was from our popular Scotney Castle Starter Pack. The picture requires just 6 pastel pencils.We've had many requests to video this subject as it's so popular amongst our students so we decided to do so, only this time using a full range of pencils.The new version you see below was done using 29 Faber-Castell Pitt Pastel Pencils (nearly half the range of 60 available) and makes it go from a Beginner's picture to an Advanced picture.You can learn to draw this full picture by going joining our Membership or enrolling in just this course here.
