STILL LIFE


Flowers make lovely
living subjects for pastel
paintings. Still lifes give you
complete control over your
subject, as you choose
the lighting, background,
objects, and textures.

Sketch the outline loosely
with a pastel pencil,
making sure the pot is
balanced and the flowers
do not look too heavy. Use
simple oval shapes for the
flower heads and leaves.
