Written by pastel technique expert and former Community of Artists president Jeremy Ford, this great book begins with the basics (such as marking and blending paints), moves on to using color and tone and sky imagery, and leads to more advanced techniques, including successful depth creation and perspective. The book includes a description of possible difficulties, useful tips and techniques, considered on five beautiful step-by-step projects, allowing readers to either get inspiration from it, or use it as a training course to master and improve mastery.
