Artwork by Carey-Lynn Melnychuk: Process of creating a pastel piece
http://careylynnmelnychuk.blogspot.com/2009/03/process-of-creating-pastel-piece_29.html
Sunday, March 29, 2009. Process of creating a pastel piece. Standing By" pastel on Pastelbord. Cleaning Up" pastel on suede mat board. Unfortunately, just because we are artists, doesn't mean we are also photographers. I, myself am trying to learn how to take a great picture to use as a reference, however, living on the prairies this can often pose a challenge if I want to draw an African animal! Such a transformation…from "alright" to "perfect"! You want them to handle it more carefully than you do!

Sunday, April 26, 2009. I did not get as much work done as I would have liked, but am quite pleased with how it is turning out so far. I am planning on doing a blog article of the piece as a "work in progress" to see the progression of it from start to finish. I will post photos soon, I promise! Friday, April 17, 2009. Pastel supplies that I usually work with:. Rembrandt (not too hard, not too soft, available open-stock in Saskatoon). Holbein (a harder pastel, available open stock in Saskatoon ). Art Spe...

Monday, September 7, 2009. I have owned and read an amazing number of art books over the years from studying at University to creating lessons for teaching at my art school.

By Betty Edwards—the basis for most of my teaching, also available as a workbook with a variety of drawing exercises, a. For any artist to own. By Le...

I really did learn alot! I am still striving for that perfection! Who knew photography was such as tough job? We also travelled down some...

Friday, April 17, 2009. Pastel supplies that I usually work with:. I am a bit of a collector of pastels, often buying multiples of colors that I use a lot of and buying new brands in hopes of getting that perfect color that I might need! I use many different brands of pastels: hard, soft, and pencil pastels. Each has their own unique properties, but they can all be used interchangeably within the same piece. Rembrandt (not too hard, not too soft, available open-stock in Saskatoon). Unison (very soft past...
