Bluebells always feel a little like magic. They arrive so quickly and are gone in no time so let's get our bluebell skills ahead of the season and focus on what we love about them.
I'm often on a woodland walk when I find a blue shimmering carpet of bluebells so a pathway is a natural part of the composition. When I'm out with friends, it's not always appropriate to sketch and sometimes a photo (such as the one below) prompts my imagination back in the studio.
Materials
Just as a recap from last month's issue, I used liquified soft pastel and a brush to paint an underpainting. I worked with Unison Colour on Uart 400 surface but you can use similar, like Pastelmat or Art
