"Winter Ruffles"
Step-by-step pastel painting demo

This demonstration, the first of the semester, lays out the basic procedural steps. The model is one of my many digital photos of the decorative cabbages that grace my neighborhood in winter. It has a nice flow of light and dark values, with great color and motion.
