Well done Sally and Sharon. I am glad that both of you are getting along with pastels and one can tell how much you are putting an effort looking at your excellent work.
Is it my idea or some of us are drawing the hips of the boy very skinny?

Dear Friends,
I had skipped this class because I did not have a brush. Now I have brush and I had a go. I used Canson Mi Teintes which is 160gr. I used very little water and drained the water with a kitchen roll. However my paper went out of shape after applying the water. I liked this technique and want to use it again. What should I do to stop paper losing its shape? I would be grateful if you comment.
Love
Selen

Very good Selen, maybe a little foliage over the front of the tree would be good. This was a good lesson wasnt it.

What I have done in the past with buckled paper is lay it on a smooth flat surface, carefully lay a sheet of paper over it and place some heavy books or whatever is handy for a day or two....and voila! flat paper.

Very nice work Selen!!
I guess it all depends on how much water the brush is soaked in. Even when you water the pastel sticks, the paper deforms a little.

Nice painting Selen,
I agree with Sally you should add some leaf over the tree trunk here and there, it will look more natural.

Sounds like the paper is good quality-maybe not as much water next time.
