In this twopart paint along video, you’ll learn how to create a lifelike portrait in soft pastel from the drawing stage all the way to a loose, painterly finish. Here in Part 1, Alain will show you how to sketch in the portrait to create a strong likeness. Then we will mass in our dark values in the background, hair and shadows.
