HOW I COLOUR WITH SOFT PASTELS IN ADULT COLOURING BOOKS | Soft pastel basing | Adult colouring

Hi guys!

I am so excited to share this video with you today. I have been requested to share with you how I use my soft pastels for basing and colouring over with pencils. I do enjoy using this method when there are large areas to cover and although the pastels are messy, they are so forgiving (you can erase them so easily).

In the video I will use Faber Castell Soft Pastels and Faber Castell Albrecht Dürer pencils (dry). The shades of soft pastel I use are:
Cadmium Yellow - 107
Terracotta - 186
Sanguine - 188
Caput mortuum - 169
Van dyck brown - 176

I really enjoyed putting together this video and I hope you enjoy watching it!

Until next time…

Happy colouring!
