Pastel Still Life Project

The composition for this piece was planned by using a series of thumbnail sketches - small, quick sketches of the objects in various arrangements used to visually find the best positioning. A viewfinder was used to isolate areas of similar arrangements, further aiding the composition process. Items were made to appear 3-dimensional by the use of highlights and shadows, and the use of contor line shading. A light source was created by using tints (lighter shades of the same color) and white pastels.
