In my pastel class yesterday, we painted with a limited palette. We had to choose a warm blue, cool blue, warm red, cool red, warm yellow, cool yellow, etc. We painted for about an hour and here is my start. I will continue to work on it and will post a finished shot. It was very hard to get used to using only 12 pastels. But, by using color temperature, we were able to start making objects come to life.
